  You can’t install Disqus on http://pcfunkies.wordpress.com/. To use plugins you must hire a web host and then set up your own WordPress.org install. Please read this comparison > http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  We can’t install Disqus on any free hosted WordPress.com blog. This is a multiuser blogging platform. Our blogs are not free standing. There is no FTP access to free hosted WordPress.com blogs and we bloggers cannot install any plugins. There is no upgrade you can purchase that will provide FTP access and the ability to install plugins, upload themes, and/or edit templates and themes in a free hosted WordPress.com blog.

  @function360 It doesn’t matter whether you own a premium blog but on wordpress.com you can’t add any plugins !! As simple as that :D

  That’s right. I posted the correct answer above but some people still don’t get it no matter how much we dumb it down.

  timethief, I suspect some readers need a definition of “web host”. The confusion is perpetuated, also, by DISQUS; their installation instructions tell users to look for the plugin option under WordPress.com Admin, as if to imply that all WordPress.com users will see that option. The caveat that the instructions do not apply to free or even premium WordPress accounts needs to appear several links/pages beforehand.
