On the days where I feel like I found the end of the internet, I go to http://www.freerice.com. It's a multiple-choice vocabulary game, and every right answer you give will donate 20 grains of rice to people in needy countries. I know 20 grains of rice doesn't sound like much, but in less than 15 minutes tonight, I donated 4,000 grains of rice. The game is terribly addicting and fun!
Since www.freerice.com was introduced in Oct0ber 2007, this month has been the slowest so far in the history of the site, and right now is when these poor and poverty-stricken countries need the most help.
So please - if you're bored, go give it a shot. It doesn't cost you a thing but time, and hey - who coudn't stand to broaden their vocabulary a little every day?
(Thanks mamajeeper!)
