jimmyfal on "Begginner question: Do articles get archived automatically?"

I''ve recently been talked into using Joomla platform for my website. I'm doing a blog on the site, and my site guy has informed me that the blog posts do NOT get automatically archived. I have to post items in the archive section. Is this normal? I just assumed that any decent blog (such as wordpress) should have a section that automatically accumulates old articles...
thanks...
