Buy on blockchain? You can not buy anything on blockchain, are you maybe thinking blockchain.info which can show you the price in USD? Its in the lower right corner.

Im not really here, its just your imagination.

You can't buy/sell BTC from Blockchain.info. It is an explorer. We can just explore blocks and all.

Kindly,

Yup. Blockchain is like a database of all Bitcoin transactions in real time. You need an exchange to buy and sell BTC.

I guess you are talking about the links you found on the right hand side on your wallet home page, right?

As others have already explained, blockchain.info itself is not an exchange.
Those sites you found (spendbitcoins.com.au, quadrigacx.com, cavirtex.com, kraken.com) are the partners of blockchain.info.

If you are buying bitcoin in US, you can try Coinbase, BitSimple, or localbitcoins.

You should go for exchange site like btc-e or coinbase. Both are good..
