   Is there a way to set it so that when a user clicks on a category link it takes the user to the first post in the category (i.e. instead of going to http://www.website.com/category/ it goes directly to http://www.website.com/category/LatestPost)?

   I have it set so only one post appears at most per page, which means going to the main category page is pointless. Although it seems trivial, this means that my next_post_link & previous_post_link don't appear until the user clicks on the post's title, finally getting to the single post.

   Thanks for any suggestions...

   Untested but give this a try...

   <?php $postslist = get_posts('category=5&numberposts=1&order=DESC&orderby=post_date');
        foreach ($postslist as $post) :
        setup_postdata($post); ?>
      <li><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>">Work</a></li>
   <?php endforeach; ?>
