Nothing. Except "Concordance" is both more accurate and more resonant. 
"Bible" means Book, and implies a static text. I presume that the work in 
question will be subject to updates, and will not exist primarily in book 
format.

Nothing's wrong with "kippers", either, but I don't think "Usenet 
Kippers" would be a very good name, either.
