  Plugins are not permitted on WordPress.com for various security reasons. You can use them on wordpress.org http://en.support.wordpress.com/plugins/

  Hello there,
  You didn’t supply the URL for your blog so we do not know if you are referring to a free blog being hosted by wordpress.COM or to a free software install from wordpress.ORG.

  If you are referring to a wordpress.ORG install then you must post to this forum to get support http://wordpress.ORG/support/

  If you are referring to a free hosted wordpress.COM blog then the comment above contains the answer to your question. There is no FTP access to free hosted wordpress.COM blogs and we cannot upload individual plugins into them.

  The video does not apply to free hosted wordpress.COM blogs. Please provide the URL for the blog in question ie. your blog, starting with http:// so we can give you a definitive answer that pertains to that specific blog.
