  Plugins are not allowed on blogs at wordpress.COM for security reasons. Plugins are for self-hosted blogs using the software from wordpress.ORG.

  However, you do not need it for like buttons as wordpress has taken care of that for you. See this support document:

  But the wordpress.com option is a share button, not a like button. We all want the like button! Anyone can help here?

  Take a look at this earlier thread that I found by searching the forums for “facebook like”.
