  I understand that I need a plugin and that these aren’t available for wordpress.com accounts. So is it impossible for me to have this link on my blog?

  You can create a Link Widget to redirect your users to your Twitter profile.

  Please review the following instruction guide: http://en.support.wordpress.com/widgets/links-widget/

  Thanks. I’ve already done that. I’m trying to figure out how to have a ‘follow me on Twitter’ link on my blog. I need a plug-in for that and it seems I can’t get it with a WordPress.com account.

  In that case, go to http://www.twitterbuttons.com/
  Follow the instructions on the screen, and copy the HTML code into a Text Widget.
