The Codex Sinaiticus project is now on-line. Mark is the only NT book on the site so far. There will be major updates in November and by July next year the site should be complete. Sinaiticus once contained the entire Bible. Unfortunately parts of the OT are forever lost. The codex is the only known copy of the Greek NT in majuscule script.
The site is fairly easy to navigate once you get the hang of it. It is exciting that this major manuscript is now on-line for all to see and study. I will be sending my students to it in the fall so they can learn how to transcribe and collate.
Sinaiticus is basically Alexandrian in the NT, but John 1:1-8:39 is Western.
