Is it possible to sort or rearrange the circles within Google Plus?

I'd like a display order other than alphabetical.

Thanks.

If you go to manage your circles, you can drag circles into the order you want them to display.

G+ did sort them alphabetically in the first few weeks, then one day it just stopped and hasn't come back. I believe numbering them is the only current solution.

Well, mine won't even sort alphabetically. The newest circle simply goes to the end.But I've heard that people are adding numbers before the names to force a certain sort order. Eg. 01-Work, 02-Ski friends, 03-Softball team. etc, etc

I had the same question, and there doesn't appear to rearrange the Circles in Google+. You can delete them and perhaps re-add them in the order you want. But I don't think you can manually move them.
