Found this work by the Society of Biblical Literature on XML standards for Biblical Citations. They're looking ahead to Xlink/Xpointer, which don't seem well-supported yet, but that's definitely the right direction. 2 Timothy 3:16 gets encoded as "Tim2.3.16": not much different from the traditional convention of using a colon for separating chapter and verse, but necessary because the colon has special status in XML. 

One addition for corpus work is obvious: an extra index for words. So Tim2.3.16.2 is a reference to the word "Scripture", the second word in the verse (at least in the ESV and some other versions). Of course, you also need a version identifier to ground this word index: some are listed here, though ESV is not.

Found some good stuff at A List Apart on weblog and web writing, after i went there looking to understand using CSS for printing pages. The suggestion from Write a Better Weblog by Dennis Mahoney is just where i want Blogos to go: "are you attempting to produce quality material, or just killing time?"
