  Tell me, can I put a special button for the visitors, which will extradite random post?
  It would be very useful!
  Advance thanks and sorry for my poor English!

  If you want to use a button, then upload the button of your choice to your Media Library, get the URL and put it into the following code.

  <a href="http://http://povsuduvolosy.wordpress.com/?random"><img src="URL_of_button" alt="click for random post" title="random button" /></a>

  Soory I clicked to soon. That code goes into a text widget which can be displayed in your sidebar. You simply copy and paste it into the text widget. http://en.support.wordpress.com/widgets/text-widget/

  RATS! I made a mistake in the code above. I included http:// twice. Ignore that above and I’ll now post again

  If you want to use a button, then upload the button of your choice to your Media Library, get the URL and put it into the following code.

  `<img src=”URL_of_button” alt=”click for random post” title=”random button” />‘

  That code goes into a text widget which can be displayed in your sidebar. You simply copy and paste it into the text widget. http://en.support.wordpress.com/widgets/text-widget/

  I’m so sorry I messed that up above.

  You might also consider the Recent Posts Widget or / and Most Popular Recent Posts Widget – drag and drop into the sidebar and set the number of Posts to display.
