Reading the excellent Wikipedia article on pizza while eating some made me wonder about more pizza variants. They mention the basics also, but I saw references in my poll responses to Old Forge Style, New Haven Style, the california gourmet pizzas, and Boston pizza.

Wikipedia also refers to a Scottish practice of serving fish & chips with a deep fried frozen pizza, but let’s just let that slide on by, okay?

The pizza industry has what looks like a pretty good site of their own.

Any other major pizza variants people know of?

One of the minor details that turned out to be a big deal to me (inasmuch as getting it "wrong" makes me think really hard about why a pizza isn't as good as it could be) is whether or not you put the toppings on top of the cheese, or the cheese on top of the vegetables. Montreal 99¢ pizza is unfailingly a congealed layer of cheese with all the vegetables and meat underneath that (with the exception of pepperoni, which goes both under and above the cheese, so you get soft bits and crunchy burnt bits), and I have had a lot of Montreal 99¢ pizza, so when the toppings go on top they seem so dry and wrong.
