  There are some outside forums – try Google Free Forum – you can link to one of them – if you want to embed a forum you would need to self host and be a webmaster etc. and set your own site up.

  With the disclaimer that I have not tried these – but I did see a some positive comments on them – I looked at them and they did not look very hard to deal with.

  @nyjetsfuel1
  Just to be clear on this. The forum will not be on your blog and hosted by wordpress.com. It will be hosted by the site you choose to get it from. What will be on your wordpress.com blog is a link to the free forum that you choose to set up.
