Title: index.html (Getting Started) and Quick Start

Might have stepped on a couple of Matei's edits in Quick Start.

However please note that there doesn't seem to be an "addJar" method used in these code examples.

If "("local", "Simple App", "YOUR_SPARK_HOME",
List("target/scala-2.10/simple-project_2.10-1.0.jar")"
is a SparkConf object then maybe we need to make that clearer and put that part of Matei's language back in.

application. We also call sc.addJar to make sure that when our application is launched in cluster
mode, the jar file containing it will be shipped automatically to worker nodes.
