What is the difference between these 2 options under the blog management when I go to make a new blog post?
There is no explaination as to what is different, and from looks alone, they seem identical.
I think that conceptually, posts are for date-driven content, whereas pages are for more "timeless" content. So news, personal journal entries, bleeding-edge product stuff makes more sense as posts. Static pages about the blog or author, maybe white papers, and other timeless content makes more sense in pages.
There are a couple more specific differences that I'm aware of:
That's what I could find. I'm interested to hear if there are other specific differences.

There are only two differences between a post and a page. Pages are not included in syndication feeds and the URLs are slightly different, but that's it. So, the only reason to use them is if you want a post to not be syndicated. For example, you might use them for pricing sheets as it's a good idea to keep a history and not just overwrite a page with new prices (a very bad idea).

I'm a little foggy on this myself, but if I understood what I read correctly a page doesn't feed to RSS and a post does or something like that. Other than that I don't know.
I didnlt know the diff before reading this. thanks, a lot.
Thanks for clearing that up.
