The _() and e() functions can take one or two arguments. The first one 
is the text to be translated, the second one is the 'domain'. 
Translations for Wordpress itself use the default domain, plugins and 
themes should use their own domain to keep things seperate. If your 
theme is called 'sometheme' then the function calls will look like this:

_e('...sometext...', 'sometheme')

This way different themes/plugins can have their own translation of a 
certain string, which prevents possible name clashes. If you follow this 
pattern you can just drop your mo file in the plugin/theme directory. If 
I'm not mistaken it should be named themename_locale.mo.

Good luck translating!
