Sharing the Book of Mormon Electronically

I recently noticed that there is no one easy way to share the Book of Mormon electronically. Well you could tell someone to go to there mobile app store and search for Book of Mormon. or send them to one of any of the following links.

http://www.mormon.org/beliefs/book-of-mormon
http://www.mormon.org/free-book-of-mormon
http://scriptures.lds.org/en/bm/contents

I was on a plane recently and met someone who wanted to read the Book of Mormon. I wasn't sure what to do, right on the spot. So when I got home I created http://ShareBoM.com. It's basicly just a menu linking all these sites into one location.

Now I share the Book of Mormon all the time just by sending the person a text message with the ShareBoM.com URL in it.

My question now is my Bishop knows about the site and members of the Stake Presidency. Do I need to do anything to get it "Approved" or anything like that?

Your site is your own personal site, not an official Church site, and so it doesn't need any approval.

The one thing you do need to do is to follow the guidelines at internet.lds.org and make sure your site includes a disclaimer that it is not an official site of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

Thanks aebrown, I did forget to do that, didn't I.

Except all I created was the menu. All the content is the Churchs.
