  I hope this is the right forum for my question.
  I’m not able to add videos from youtube.com or other stuff like this (for example map from Frappr.com) to my site. On other bloging systems there is no problem with this, but i don’t want change from wordpress.com to other system cause i already lot of posts there.
  So is there any way how to add this sort of things on my blog on wordpress.com or have i to change bloging system?
  (Excuse my english, I’m foreigner and only high school student :-))

  Can I add flash? video? Embed other media?
  For security reasons we remove the tags needed for the above. Your intentions may be innocent but someone somewhere would try to damage the site.
  Currently we allow the linking to files from Google Video, Youtube, DailyMotion, Grouper, Odeo, and SplashCast.

  Can I add flash? video? Embed other media?

  Specific instructions for each one are found in the FAQs.

  You’re most welcome. Here at wordpress.com we all work on the same multi-user blogging platform so we are somewhat limited when it comes to embeds to preserve security for us all. Happy blogging :)
