Where to Start Reading about Bible Software

Although some of the specific contents are badly outdated, I would still recommend reading Harry Hahne's course notes "Using a Computer in Biblical and Theological Studies". A lot of water has gone under the bridge since 1999, particularly so in the field of computing and computer-assisted Bible study, but many of his general insights still hold true (see, for instance, the first section: "Introduction: How a computer can help in seminary and ministry", where he deals with subjects such as Computer Basics, Major types of software, Computing and the Process of Research and Writing, What a Computer Can and Cannot Do, Working Efficiently With a Computer, etc.) The comments he makes, later on in the course, on certain programs and Internet sites only apply to the current situation at the time of writing, and should be taken with a grain of salt.

Harry Hahne was also the editor for the Bible Analysis website, which unfortunately hasn't been updated in a long, long, time. However, his essay "Interpretive Implications of Using Bible-Search Software for New Testament Grammatical Analysis" remains a must-read, IMO, for anyone interested in the rigorous study of the Greek New Testament with the aid of computer tools, despite the fact than most of the programs he mentions in the test cases have been vastly improved over the years.
