How to put widgets in the sidebar

[thoughtsramble]

Hey! This is my first post^^ and after searching through all the tags, I THINK this has not been asked before.. and that is if it's possible to put a hit counter at the sidebars? Right now I'm putting it as an entry, but is there anyway that the counter can be moved to the side so that it's always there?

Thank you!^^
