WordPress Plugin Question - php

Is it possible to use plugins on my blog for WordPress.com? There are some very nice tutorials on how to do this if I have WordPress installed on my own server, but I am using wordpress.com.
Does anyone know if they allow this? It seems like the expected "Plugin" category on my dashboard is missing.
Many thanks,
brett

It already has some plugins built in such as Akismet, but you can not add your own on Wordpress.com (you can't even add other themes and can only use the ones they provide).
Here is a list of the free features. With premium paid for features, you also have the ability to use your own domain name and can customize your CSS (as well as some other stuff).

Wordpress.com doesn't let you install your own plugins.

What is bizXpress? And what is the purpose and use of it in wordpress?

I am newer with WordPress, so i dont have enough knowledge of it. Last few days i have installed wordpress with Xampp. I also have created some post, pages.
But yesterday i was googling about WP then i got something about bizXpress, then i know about that. bizXpress provides some tools, keywords for our website, which makes our website popular.
So i have followed this link:
http://wordpress.org/plugins/bizxpress/
http://www.nickusborne.com/if-you-have-a-wordpress-website-get-yourself-the-new-bizxpress-plugin/
I have installed bizXpress in WordPress. But i'm not able use. i have googled but cannot find anything usefull.
In these links, i found there are some tools and research tools to make website Popular.
but i dont have any idea how to use them.
Someone suggest me:
What is the purpose and use of bizXpress with Wordpress?
How can i use these tools with WordPress?
The missing link in Wordpress is the guidance for how to turn a website into an online business. You need to do keyword research, and understand the process of, not just getting visitors, but turning them into customers. That's what bizXpress does. It teaches you the correct process (or one of them).
Yes you can find some help if you search around, but bizXpress builds it into the fabric of Wordpress via a plugin. After all, the best part of Site Build It is the guidance it gives to beginners. Sitesell is just offering that guidance to WP users.
To use those tools, in your admin, look for the name same as the name of the Plugin and you can manage it. :P Simple?
This plugin offers no functionality in WordPress. The plugin just creates a dashboard for links to the tools. It is easier to login at the bizxpress website instead of installing it on your site. The instruction manual is called the Action Guide.

adding new module in wordpress

I'm sorry if my question is not good quality.I have problem when I want to understanding wordpress , I'm new in wordpress, and I want to create some module in wordpress, It's Possible?
ex.
if i want to add module, what must I'm studying in wordpress ?
Joomla usually refers to a module. Writing one in WordPress is considered a plugin. You should start studying the Codex and it will lay what you need to do out for you.
You can find that on the WordPress site at Writing_a_Plugin
WordPress Plugin: A WordPress Plugin is a program, or a set of one or more functions, written in the PHP scripting language, that adds a specific set of features or services to the WordPress weblog, which can be seamlessly integrated with the weblog using access points and methods provided by the WordPress Plugin Application Program Interface (API).
Wishing that WordPress had some new or modified functionality? The first thing to do is to search various WordPress Plugin repositories and sources to see if someone has already created a WordPress Plugin that suits your needs. If not, this article will guide you through the process of creating your own WordPress Plugins.
To develop WP plugins, you must familiar with wordpress hooks and API functions.
You can start learning/exploring from any existing plugins. I had started with "Hello_Dolly" :)

Page templates, wordpress, without FTP

I am using a .wordpress.com blog that would like to get some custom page templates, I understand how how to write page templates, but, I don't understand how to get the template onto whatever.wordpress.com without FTP access!
EDIT: I don't want themes, I need to basically make a price form, where users select options, and based on options the price of a product increases, and this price is emailed to the user. I sort of guessed I could use page templates for this, but, I'm open to suggestions.
You are pretty much out of luck for the wordpress.com free feature. For full custom template options, you will need to host your own word press site. Or alternatively, choose a good theme and customize the css / etc, as part of its 'premium' feature:
http://en.wordpress.com/products/
EDIT: side notes
Hosting plans are cheap anyway for wordpress blogs these days, LOL most major host allows it to be pre-installed as you purchase your web-space. At less then US$10 per month, it ain't that bad. Probably cheaper then 'premium' with alot more freedom. (=X unless you already got a really popular bog)
Additionally, wordpress admin interface itself, comes with a built in theme / file editor (if you host it on your own). That allows you to edit the theme / PHP / css files. Though it may lack syntax highlighting, that can be easily remedied with plug-ins.
Install themeforest theme in wordpress.com (similar question)
You can't install custom templates on a wordpress.com blog, only choose whatever is there.
You need your own hosting to be able to install custom themes.

Is there a way to send a blog post to wordpress via an api?

In more details:
I want to build a web service to which users register and by browsing my site, users can send blog posts to their own blogs. Initially wordpress.org is discussed. However, I'll be happy to hear solutions for typepad or wordpress.com as well.
The ideal solution would be a way for my server to simply "tell" their blog what to post (as a draft of course for them to confirm).
A good solution would be for my users to install a plugin in their blog that will allow my server the above functionality.
Lacking any other solution, I would give my users text to copy-paste into their blog editor.
Help me find a solution and feel free to be creative!
Yes there is an XMLRPC interface.
You have to enable it in some config file if I remember well. Its been quite a while.
yes wordpress supports such api. checkout windows live writer. http://windowslivewriter.spaces.live.com/blog/cns!D85741BB5E0BE8AA!174.entry
