  At present there are no chatboxes or forums I am aware of that can be embedded into free hosted WordPress.com blogs. There is no FTP access and we cannot install plugins.

  However, the good news is that you have three free workaround forum options: http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/2012/04/23/wordpress-com-forum-options/

  One approach is to register a forum on the internet and then create a custom menu in your blog and include a custom link to the forum in it.
