  Can I have a link to my chatroom in the sidebar. Currently I have it in a post but want to delete that and just have it in the sidebar.

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

  Yes. See here for links in text widgets http://en.support.wordpress.com/links/text-widget-links/

  I did it, but can it be made to open in another tab/window when clicked?

  In the html editor (as well as in text widgets), instead of this:
  <a href="URL HERE">TEXT HERE</a>
  you write this:
  <a href="URL HERE" target="_blank">TEXT HERE</a>
