I just installed Drupal and I'm in the process of setting everything up. So far most things are going well, but there is one issue that I am still having issues with.

I'd like to have my site set up as follows:

root (www.example.com) shows front page
|
|-- articles (www.example.com/article) shows articles
|
|-- blogs (www.example.com/blog) shows blog entries
|
|-- forums (www.example.com/forum) shows forums
|
|-- polls (www.example.com/poll) shows polls

Right now everything is working the way I want except the articles. I'd like all 'stories' to be considered articles with urls like www.example.com/article/4. I have a feeling I will be able to do this using the taxonomy module, but I haven't had much luck.

Could someone please give me some pointers?

Why don't you use pathauto module? You can put a rule on pathauto config page for story types. Make it something like:
article/[nid]
or better..
article/[title]-[nid] this will also put the story name in URL which is good for search engines.
