A friend of mine recently bought himself an iPad2, and yes, it's pretty sweet. But, whilst messing around and seeing what it can do, there was one program, or app, that amazed me the most, and it is called "Glo."

Glo is an interactive Bible that brings the text of the Scripture to life through HD video, high-res images, zoomable maps, 360-degree virtual tours, customizable Bible reading plans, and a natural user interface for fast, easy, visual navigation on Mac, PC, iPad, and iPhone. It's truly amazing, and if you can afford it, a worthy addition to help the Christian in their daily walk and understanding of the history of God's Word.

The full premium package currently comes loaded with some bonus content, and can be yours for only $49.99. However, if you'd like to "test drive" the program, there is now "Glo Lite" which you can download for free for whichever gadget you want it on. (Although there is no support for any Android devices that I could see.) It's a pretty lean sampling of what the full package can do... so I still say that if you know of someone who has the full version - do yourself a favour and check it out.

I, for one, know that as soon as I get a device that can handle this app, I'm going to be saving up to purchase the full version. Try it out and let me know what you think!
