Why the Alphabet?

Wikipedia explains an alphabet as the following:

An alphabet is a complete standardized set of letters—basic written symbols—each of which roughly represents or represented historically a phoneme of a spoken language. This as distinguished from other writing systems such as ideograms, in which symbols represent complete ideas, and syllabaries, in which each symbol represents a syllable. The word alphabet itself is derived from alpha and beta, the first two symbols of the Greek alphabet.

Why have a blog about it? Why not? The real reason is that doteasy was forcing a free .info domain on me and this is all I could come up with. The extended reason is that if you stare at anything long enough, you're bound to find something interesting in it.

I'll devote a little time staring at the alphabet (on google of course), and I'll share the interesting stuff here. Enjoy.
