The doc you sent
;; 1.) Add this to your init file (.emacs probably):
;;
;; (require 'org-protocol)
;;
;; 3.) Ensure emacs-server is up and running.

describes in a low-level way _how_ to use it, but in order to think

Could you state a few examples?
Also, how is this related to Org mode? Why call it "org-protocol" rather
tham some other name?
