If you use Emacs 23.1, then you don't need to do anything.  Simply open
a file with .org extension will enable org-mode.

That said, you might want to specify which org files are used to
generate the agenda view.  Let's say all your org files are in a
directory ~/org/, then add this code to you .emacs.

  (setq org-agenda-files '("~/org"))

You might also want to set up custom global keys to fire up the agenda
or to store a link to the current document.  Org's nice manual explains
how to do that:

,----[ (info "(org)Activation") ]
|      (global-set-key "\C-cl" 'org-store-link)
|      (global-set-key "\C-ca" 'org-agenda)
`----

Bye,
