  Every WordPress blog has multiple built in RSS Feeds.
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/feeds/
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/widgets/rss-widget/

  Please read WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org

  There is no FTP access to our free hosted WordPress.com blogs and we bloggers cannot install plugins or upload third party themes.
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/ftp-access/
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/plugins/
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/themes/#uploading-custom-themes

  FTP access, plugins and third party themes are available only for VIP bloggers http://vip.wordpress.com/our-services/ or for those with WordPress.ORG installs.

  WordPress.com and WordPress.org are completely separate. As I said above there is no upgrade aside from being VIP hosted http://vip.wordpress.com/our-services/ that you can purchase to install plugins. They cannot be installed by bloggers on any free hosted WordPress.com blog.

  if your require plugins you hire a web host http://wordpress.org/hosting/ and set up your own WordPress.org install. http://wordpress.org/ Then you move your content from the free hosted WordPress.com blog into the WordPress.org install. http://en.support.wordpress.com/moving-a-blog/
