Get a Daily Verse on Your iPod… As an Image

Travis at secondmouse has created a verse-of-the-day feed with a twist. Every day Travis takes the ESV daily verse and turns it into an image formatted for an iPod. For example:

Matthew 7:7-8. “Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives, and the one who seeks finds, and to the one who knocks it will be opened.” (ESV)

Travis creates the images in Photoshop each day. He says that “making the images by hand also ‘forces’ me to read the new daily verse each day. If it were automated, I would probably be tempted to skip from time to time.” You’ve got to love something that combines private devotion with providing a service to the wider church.
