Capturing notes from Firefox into org-mode

One of the "killer-features" of emacs that's been getting buzz is org-mode

(http://www.orgmode.org). It's a do everything note taker/planning

system that every emacs user should check out.

I stumbled across a page (http://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/org-protocol.php) describing how to capture text/links into org files with a Firefox bookmarklet. Now whenever I want to save a snippet of information for later I just hightlight and click the bookmarklet. The information automatically is added to the proper .org file I setup.

I've been really happy using org-mode in a low-expertise sort of approach, just using it for outlining.
