  Hi,

  It is not possible to upload plugins to WordPress.com blogs, or connect via FTP.

  The ability to upload plugins is a feature only available for WordPress blogs that have been setup using the open source software from WordPress.org on a separate web hosting account.

  Check out this help page to learn more about the differences between WordPress.com and WordPress.org:

  WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org

  We do offer a number of great widgets — perhaps you can find one that accomplishes what you’re looking for?
