  WordPress.com does not provides such a widget and we cannot use either JavaScript or iframe widgets like this one http://oxforddictionaries.com/wotd.html on free hosted WordPress.com blogs for security reasons. http://en.support.wordpress.com/code/

  But we can use flash widgets. Here’s one:

  Click “Small size”, try the color schemes and tell me which one you prefer, so I can show you how to insert it in your sidebar.
