I’ll tell you how and I want you to do something in return. Please stop typing in capital letters. In the cyberworld it’s called SHOUTING! and it’s rude.You will need to go to the website and get the code. Then you will place it in a text widget and it will display. http://whos.amung.us/

create a text widget, drag it out of the Available Widgets box and drop it into the Sidebar box
click on the blue and white icon on the text widget and it will open
paste the code into the text widget and click the X on the right hand corner to close it
click “Save Changes” -

By putting misleading or wrong answers on the forum, you will mislead others that come to this thread later looking for a correct answer. Your comment was misleading.

By saying it won’t work, you are saying there is no way to have whos amung us on wordpress.com blogs, and that is wrong. Read timethief’s reply. It is possible.

I put that thingy on my sidebar, but unless you have a blog with thousands of hits per day, it’s kinda lame to see the number one (for yourself) all the time.
Nevertheless I admire the patience of those who help out on this board in the face of such rudeness.

@lettershometoyou: Well, it needn’t be thousand visits per day. If you have around 300-500 hits per day like I do, chance is that you’ll be able to see the numbers 4-6 many times. But as you said, the more the hits you get, the more logical it is to put this thing in your sidebar.

Like you I believe that this widget is just novelty sidebar “tat” too but many people want this kind of tracking in their blogs and find it useful. Remarkably I’ve seen blogs that have this whosamungus widget, plus a sitemeter and a shinystats meter and/or a stats counter as well. Add those to the stats that we already get from wordpress.com and we still have those who want more detail.
