Default So I found this pretty cool site...

http://freerice.com/index.php

Basically, it's a never-ending vocabulary test where each correct answer donates 20 grains of rice to the UN World Food Program. So far I've donated 1,220.

Haha, it can be pretty addicting. Especially since it's for a good cause.

I have 3000 now.

I could never play that game for more than like 500.

I get so discouraged for some reason.

It's a good site, I've played it a few times when I've had nothing to do.

I've just sat and got 2000 grains of rice. Mind you, that's probably a small handful.

It is addicting... I raised 10,000 grains today. I set it to keep track of how many I raise, I want to see how many I can do in a month.

lol I found that website too a while back! I found it when I joined a group on facebook though and there was a link to it! I was on that site for like 20 minutes though lol. It's pretty cool knowing that they give africa rice everytime you get words right.
