   I was wondering if we can set up a pinterest button like the facebook one - I'm not very good at wordpress and didn't see it, but I could be blind! :)
   Thanks in advance

   You can use any widget that has pure HTML but you cannot use any widgets that contain restricted codes like iframes or JavaScript widgets. You cannot use the Pin-it Javascript code on a WordPress.com blog.

   You can put the code for the Pinterest follow button in a text widget.
   1. Go to this site, choose which one of the red Follow Me images you want, and copy the code for it. http://pinterest.com/about/goodies/

   2. Then, go to your widgets > Appearance > Widgets and select a text widget.http://en.support.wordpress.com/widgets/text-widget/

   3. Paste the Pinterest follow button code into the text widget, "save" the widget, "close" the widget and place it where you want it to display in your sidebar.

   4. You can also add a Facebook, Pinterest, etc. sharing buttons below your posts > Sharing http://en.support.wordpress.com/sharing/
