  There should DEFINITELY be a newsletter sign-up plugin. I tried using the embed code from mailchimp, but it wouldn’t work on here. Help!

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

  I’d like to second this sentiment. My site is pastgo.net, and only just tonight I’ve learned the difference between wordpress.COM and wordpress.ORG. Dot Com is definitely the avenue for me, but the inability to have plug-ins prevents me from exploring a newsletter plugin I was interested in. Offering a newsletter template that matches the chosen theme would be ideal.

  You cannot use the MailChimp embed code or the Aweber embed code and cannot create a pop-up on a wordpress.COM hosted blog. You can create a sign up page on MailChimp or on Aweber only and then link to it.

  If you want to use MailChimp with your WordPress.com site here’s the info from MailChimp Support http://kb.mailchimp.com/article/how-to-add-a-mailchimp-signup-form-to-your-wordpress-blog
