HTML5 - Correct usage of the <article> tag

Viewed 2300

Reading an article on the <article> tag on HTML5, I really think my biggest confusion is in the first question of this section:

Using <article> gives more semantic meaning to the content. By contrast <section> is only a block of related content, and <div> is only a block of content... To decide which of these three elements is appropriate, choose the first suitable option:

  1. Would the content would make sense on its own in a feed reader? If so, use <article>.
  2. Is the content related? If so, use <section>.
  3. Finally, if there’s no semantic relationship, use <div>.

So I guess my question is really: What types of content belong in a feed reader?
