Adding a "Blogs I Follow" widget is not user-friendly
-
It seems everywhere I go, wordpress blogs have a little widget in the sidebar that lists the blogs that person follows. I would like to add this feature, as well. Except that I cannot FIND out How. I scoured my tools, settings, widgets, etc. and came up dry. I checked out this page ( http://en.support.wordpress.com/blogroll/add-a-blogroll-link/ ) which I Thought might show me how/where to install a simple widget that would grab all the blogs I follow, and update my little widget ‘Blogs I Follow’ list every time I began following a new blog.
No. Doesn’t seem to be easily accessible, or at least discoverable.
Currently, I am just using a text widget, and manually html coding in all the blogs I am following. Please tell me there is a Much easier/quicker way.

The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)
