Your blog settings is where you can do things like change the title of your blog, add a description to go along with the title or even use your own custom domain for your blog. It's also where you can decide just who can see your blog - anyone on the Internet or select people who you invite. If you want to add additional authors to contribute stories and content to your blog you can do that in your settings as well. Your settings page is like the hub of your blog so make sure you take the time to go through them and create the functionality that you desire.
