I'm a new web programmer, I wrote a simple plugin in JavaScript and I want to put it on GitHub for people to download and use it freely. I saw many people include MIT licence in a file.How can I obtain the MIT licence? Do I have to go to http://opensource.org to apply/register or do I just need to paste the declaration on top of my source code?

You just include the licence in your software, no registration needed. Your software is always copyright protected, you state the terms of use through a licence.
