Great (and funny) TED talk by Chip Kidd on the importance of cover design, and there's a Corpus Libris cameo towards the end with Murakami's 1Q84.
Can't remember if I posted this, from the 1Q84 midnight release party at Skylight Books.

I tried for a long time to get our store cat Franny to pose for a picture. She kept looking at the book and rubbing her face on it. Finally, a coworker suggested that I try it this way.
Cut-outs of cats are so much more likely to stay still!

June 10th, 2010: Author Cameo!
Very excited for this photo -- Steve Almond was very nice to humor me. I told him that now he knows what my coworkers feel like. "Just hold this book in front of your face. A little to the left... a little more...THERE! Hold it!" And a few hours later, he did a wildly entertaining event. Thanks, Steve!
