 * I added the event to appear next to the site’s blog. How do I add the categories
   of events in the categories with the blog categories?

 * Oooo, good question! Event Categories and Blog Categories are two separate types
   of categorization. To get the two together, I think you would need to extend 
   the default WordPress category taxonomy to apply to the tribe-events custom post
   type.
 * Here’s a post that looks like a good starting point for making that happen:
