Once you've created several categories, they will appear on the right side of the page as your write a new article, and you can then select one or more of the categories for the article to be stored in.
Categories can be displayed on your WordPress homepage. When a reader clicks on a category, it will display all of the articles you wrote that were stored in that particular category.
Here's a link on category management from the WordPress site: http://codex.wordpress.org/Manage_Categories_SubPanel |
There is also a link in my sig that's help you making a free blog but it's in french only, all articles also could be sent in categories, and you DON'T need to create the categories BEFORE posting, the categories are created at the same time than the articles, when it's posted in the blog.
