Showing Recent Articles with Paginated Archives

Hi, I’m not exactly sure how to phrase this, but it’s a pretty basic question. I’m helping some people with a website at sounddesignproduction.com. They want the home page to display the most recent 3 articles for that category, and then to have numbered pages at the bottom that would link to the archives, so page 2 would have the next three articles, page 3 would have the three after that, etc.
Is there an easy way to automate this kind of archiving?
I hope this is clear – I’m sure there’s a term for this kind of article output, but I don’t know it!
Thanks so much,
Allison

Well, if i could suggest an alternative:)

ob1_pagination creates a google type navigation and is a replacement of next-previous . Styled properly might produce close to what you are looking for. See it in action here
