Link to Wordpress 'latest posts' page when using static front page

Question

I have a static page set as front page in Wordpress, instead of default 'latests posts' page. However, I would still like to be able to navigate to 'latests posts' page, but I'm not sure how to access it.

I'm doing this since I want my top navigation to be HOME (static page, front page), BLOG (latest posts), ABOUT (static page), and so on.

Since this is my custom template, I'm ok with writing PHP to achieve this if needed.

Answer 1

You'll need to put some PHP in that uses "the loop". See here for more details: http://codex.wordpress.org/The_Loop

Answer 2

Heh, simple RTFM case: http://codex.wordpress.org/Settings%5FReading%5FSubPanel

Comes out that another page can be designated as posts page, and in that case that page disregards custom template and essentially becomes new 'latest posts' page.
