Analysis of passages visited and suggesting other passages to try

An interesting area to consider to help users in reading and studying the
Bible is suggesting both related and unrelated content.  Related content
could use data like the TSK to find related topics and passages.  Unrelated
content could try to discover parts of the Bible and topics that they
haven't looked at and suggest that they look at them.

One thing to consider is keeping track of all of the passages they have
used and finding books and themes that they have missed.  With enough data,
this might suggest that they consider other passages that are related but
which they haven't visited, or suggest books that they consider reading
(perhaps with lots of helpful information about the book, such as you might
get in an introduction to the book in a study Bible).  All such information
should be time-stamped, so that it is possible to vary advice depending on
how recently they have visited a passage or a book.

The exact form this advice might take needs careful consideration.  I doubt
that a wizard or assistant like the Rainbow Rabbi or Clippy would work
well, since the advice should probably be unobtrusive so as not to be
patronising.  Having search query suggestion like "Did you mean X?" or "How
about you also try Y?" could be quite handy, but something else is needed
to display related and unrelated information and suggestions without trying
to take control.

Being able to see some kind of a visualisation of the parts of the Bible
you have visited and the parts of the Bible that you haven't could be quite
handy too (a heat map, perhaps zoomable, might be good).
