I have two questions:
1. How do I set up another category?
2. How do I change the name of my blog from http://resources.blogharbor.com/blog to

Our user manual has a whole section on using categories:

can show you how to create a category.

Regarding URLs for a category... If you create a category called Rants for example on your blog at the address of resources.blogharbor.com, the category will be available at the URL of http://resources.blogharbor.com/blog/Rants . You will also be able to access the category at the shorter URL of http://resources.blogharbor.com/Rants although our system will use the full address when it creates your links on your website.

But for convenience you can refer to the shorter address in your marketing materials for example. Just make sure you don't create a directory in your File Manager with the same address as the category name and the shorter URL will display the blog category. If there is a File Manager directory called Rants then that is what will be displayed at the http://resources.blogharbor.com/Rants address...
