  Hi there,

  WordPress.com comes with a number of features (like Google+ authorship) already built in, so you don’t need a plugin to do this. (Plugins actually can’t be installed here at WordPress.com, for security reasons. That’s a feature of self-hosted WordPress.org sites.)

  To set up Google+ authorship, you can follow the guide on this page: Connect Your Google+ Profile

  Please let me know if you have any questions about that. :)
