 * How many plugins can we have on our blog? I have 17 and it won’t seem to take
   anymore. Is there a limit? How do you delete the ones you don’t want anymore?

 * sandeshr, your blog is hosted @ wordpress.com
 * You cannot upload plugins to wordpress.com blogs.
 * Additionally, you are on the wrong support forums, try here:

 * scubadiver, No there is not a limit.
 * You **deactivate** plugins by clicking the deactivate link on the right side 
   of the screen next on the plugin row.
 * You delete plugins the same way you uploaded them. Go to where they are — wp-
   content/plugins and delete the files. Every ftp client with any kind of features
   allows you delete files of the server.

    If you have a web-host,
   where you can upload files to your own domain, then you can grab the free self-
   hosted WordPress installer from this site: [http://wordpress.org/download/](http://wordpress.org/download/)
 * You install the blog yourself on your server. Then you can manage everything 
   and change anything you want.
