I found this at the below link..

http://dearauthor.com/wordpress/2009...publisher-out/

"An ebook publisher contacted me about the post I had regarding ”What An eBook File Should Contain“. Specifically, many of us asked for a blurb or excerpt to appear at the front of the book. The publisher isn’t sure where to put it though. The blurb and excerpt are going to be listed in the table fo contents, but should the blurb and excerpt be separate files? Should it be placed at the front of the book? In what order? ie., blurb first, excerpt first? Would it be okay to be in the back of the file? What’s your thoughts?"

It's just a short poll to answer (you don't have to be signed in to vote)... It would be nice to give them feedback from people who really do care about the presentation of ebooks.

Mods, if I have posted in the incorrect place, please move it
