First, thanks for linking to the Google cache of my site, I'm grateful.
Second, the link that was posted was my how-to for hacking for the P800, not the syncing as the link advertised. Syncing is a little more difficult, but I also wrote that up here: Synchronizing a P800 with Evolution
As the Semantic Web is a layered framework, the actual vocabularies you use to describe things are applications of the framework rather than the framework itself.
One such application that might prove useful in what you're tackling is RSS. What you seem to be looking for is a taxonomy against which you can classify things. These are expensive to develop and hence rare, the ODP being one of the few that are public. My advice is, if the ODP doesn't fit, classify by topic yourself (but avoid the mistake of struggling to produce a hierarchical system, this is rarely appropriate). At a later stage you can express equivalences to other folks' categories. Folks on the RSS-DEV mailing list would be happy to share experience of categorization.
Anyone seeking more information as to what the Semantic Web actually is and how it fits together might be interested in some of the articles I've written on the topic, which give an overview both of the vision and of ways you can get started with tools:
