The "no installation required" instructions refer to outdated wakari.io service #15595

Problem description

The current Trying out pandas, no installation required! instructions point to wakari.io, a service that is now part of Anaconda Cloud. I do not think that the hosted notebooks are still part of the service.

To test this, I created an Anaconda Cloud account. I cannot find any instructions for a web notebook interface with pandas already installed. For example these instructions point to the need to install pandas locally.

Proposed solution

I propose to delete the following text in install.rst. If this sounds good I'll submit a pull request.

Trying out pandas, no installation required!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The easiest way to start experimenting with pandas doesn't involve installing
pandas at all.

`Wakari <https://wakari.io>`__ is a free service that provides a hosted
`IPython Notebook <http://ipython.org/notebook.html>`__ service in the cloud.

Simply create an account, and have access to pandas from within your brower via
an `IPython Notebook <http://ipython.org/notebook.html>`__ in a few minutes.
