Why should I care about categories?
Due to categories ObjC is ready for the latest programming technique
hype: aspect oriented programming:

aop.html
Different aspects of one class could be implemented using a category
for each aspect.
While others struggle to get aop features in their language (see
http://eclipse.org/aspectj/ ) ObjC had those features ever before the
aop hype broke loose - hence the name "category" for it and not
"aspect". So this hype is an "old head" for 'Steppers and Cocoaists.
