Could you please try clearing your browser cache and cookies?

If that still doesn't work, could you please try turning off all Chrome add-ons and extensions to see if that solves the issue?

Let me know how it goes - thanks.

The Google Chrome I'm using is up to date. I switched to Firefox & the link icon worked. So, it seems that Google Chrome has a problem right now.

Do not create posts here > http://wordpress.com/#!/post/

Instead I recommend that you ONLY log-in directly you your own blog and ONLY create posts and edit them here > Dashboard > Posts > All Posts > Add New

If you are not running one of the browsers and versions listed at http://browsehappy.com/ please try upgrading or switching first.

Note: If you are using an IE9 browser in compatibility mode that makes it render as IE7 and IE7 is not supported. To disable see > http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/1196-internet-explorer-compatibility-view-turn-off.html

If you are, please do these four things:

1. Try clearing your browser’s cache http://www.google.com/support/accounts/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=32050

2. Make sure that you have third-party cookies enabled http://en.support.wordpress.com/third-party-cookies/

I've been able to do it up to now. Today, I click on the words I want to create a link with, click on the link icon & nothing happens. What can I do about this? Or do you need to fix something
