Need to update the README to be more interesting and relevant

[karlmdavis]

I feel like the README's content doesn't talk about the webapp enough. I also feel like it's a bit out of order: I'd like to see the "Inspiration" section's content moved up to be more prominent.

And just in general, I think it's time to read through things and touch them up (e.g. architecture, etc.).

I opted not to go with an animated GIF in the README this time, as it was just going to be too much work.

If I change my mind on that in the future, though, it looks like I could have done it as follows:

1. Record a screencast using RecordMyDesktop.
   • Reference: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/24742/record-screen-activity-in-ubuntu-with-recordmydesktop/?PageSpeed=noscript
2. Use ffmpeg to extract the frames from the screencast, then use ImageMagick to combine selected frames back into a GIF.

And here's another reference that might also be useful: http://askubuntu.com/questions/506670/how-to-do-i-convert-an-webm-video-to-a-animated-gif-on-the-command-line
