 * I ‘m a total newbie at this 🙂
 * Is it necessary to know the categories that ya wanna set up *before* installing
   WordPress or can I go back later on and create new ones or edit them?
 * Thanks!

 * No, you don’t need to know your future categories. It is enough if you know how
   to install it..
