Introduction

This site lists alternative orderings of the Latin alphabet.

Orderings of the alphabet have been on my mind as I'm trying to learn to touch-type.

I did a search and didn't find much, so this aims to be the Web home of as many alphabetical orderings as can be imagined and found interesting.

There are 403,291,461,126,605,635,584,000,000 possible permutations of the 26-letter alphabet, so some selection is, ahem, in order.

Anyone wanting to submit an interesting alphabetical ordering can add it as a comment or send me mail. I can also make you an author of this blog so you can add a bunch. Just contact me. On Gmail, I'm kaicarver.
