How do I make a WordPress Page act like the default home page displaying multiple posts?

1. If you go to Settings->Reading and then for “Front Page Shows” select static page, and then select a page from the dropdown, then edit the source code for this file to include a standard WP loop like –

   <?php if(have_posts()) : while(have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
       <h2><?php the_title() ?><h2>
   <?php endwhile; endif; ?>

2. Use the wordpress loop, but you can control which posts show up in the loop using query_posts()
