  Hi,

  As is expected, when I post to my blog, notification is sent out to my followers. I’d like to add a second to the same “blog”, one that will also send out these notifications. Opposed to simply adding a page that is static. Basically, Ihave two blogging categories that I would like to post separately, but have them on the same site. How can I do this? Can I?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  There is no such thing as multiple blogs on one site because every blog is an independent website, and what you do on any blog has no effects on any other blog.

  Please read this first Post vs. Page http://en.support.wordpress.com/post-vs-page/

  (1) There is only one page we can post to in any blog.
  (2) The static pages http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/ we bloggers create do not automatically update.

  Only the dynamic pages like Archives, Categories and Tags created by the software when we publish a post will update automatically update with new posts.

  By default the front page of the blog is the Page that displays all posts in your blog. You can create a static front page and have your published posts display on another page http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/front-page/ but doing that does not change what follows.

  Though there is only one dynamic page in a blog for posts (not pages) http://en.support.wordpress.com/post-vs-page/ and we cannot post to more than that one page, we can create the appearance that we have posted to more than one page.

  We assign categories to posts. http://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/categories/
  Until we publish a post with a category assigned to it the dynamic categories page will not have any data that it can display.

  This guide will walk you through how to create category pages for your blog, to display groupings of similar posts on pages other than your front page. http://en.support.wordpress.com/category-pages/

  Create a custom menu

  Add dynamic categories and sub-categories pages to it

  Create order and sub-menus (dropdowns)

  There are many common errors, misunderstandings and misconceptions when creating custom menus and there are some tweaks you can use to improve your custom menu as well. Here is more information:
