  Hello Kellth,

  WordPress.com and WordPress.org are different, and on WordPress.com you can not install Plugins but there are Widgets (http://en.support.wordpress.com/widgets/) that you can choose from; and for more information on the difference between WordPress.com and WordPress.org check out:

  WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org
