Tintin and The Secret of Literature—The Digital Book Cover
“I went from assuming the cover might someday disappear completely, to believing that it could take on a whole new life” said Charlie Orr in a post he did back in May on the blog The Hypothetical Library.
As he pondered the digital explosion of content delivery that is currently underway in the book world he “couldn’t decide what was worse, the poor quality of covers when the e-books included them, or the fact that most e-books on the Kindle and other e-ink based readers didn’t bother with them at all.”
This was enough to motivate Orr to explore the digital book cover.

and I’m glad he did for a digital book cover should be as an integral part of an e-book as the dust jacket or cover art is to the printed book.
