Options for hosting JavaScript
-
I understand that wordpress.com does not allow arbitrary JavaScript in posts and pages.
I would like to display data from a Google Spreadsheet in my blog and would like to do that using some JavaScript (think some graphs and such using d3.js etc.,). How can I do that now?
I prefer having wordpress.com for my site but would also like to occasionally add data from other APIs to customize my posts. Short of self hosting WordPress what options do I have?

You cannot post JavaScript on any WordPress.COM blog without the software stripping the code out. It’s security issue as this is a multiuser blogging platform. http://en.support.wordpress.com/code/#javascript
Your option is to hire a web host http://wordpress.org/hosting and set up a WordPress.ORG install. http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

You can LINK to a Google Spreadsheet, and you can take an image of it and upload that as a static PNG or something, but those are your options, basically.
