You need to change your permalink structure under the settings menu - you will find this at:

If you want just the post name and no dates or anything else, select the "custom" option and enter %postname% in the field.
For optimum performance, it has been recently reported in the article Using Permalinks, and the wp-testers email list, that it is better to use a Permalink structure such as 'Day and Name' or 'Month and Name'
With that said, if you only have a few posts and Pages then it probably doesn't matter...
