Definition and Usage
The <category> element specifies one or more categories the channel or item belongs to. The <category> element can also specify the hierarchic location in a category (the value of the <category> element is then a forward-slash separated string).
The <category> element makes it possible for RSS aggregators to group sites/articles based on category.
