Free Rice

Usually when i get links to websites or groups i usually i dismiss them unless i really can be bothered or the headline tickles my fancy. Upon clicking the groups' link i saw a simple image on the right hand side and i was intrigued. But i can't be arsed to rephrase what i read, so this is what it said;
It's a simple word game.

One right answer is 10 grains of rice for someone without food.
If everyone answers just a few questions a day, it will add up.

Make it your home page.
Invite your friends.


Feed the hungry.

Improve your vocabulary.

Here's how it works:
They're not sitting on a pile of rice, waiting to decide how much to give... Nor are they manipulating poor farmers to donate rice. The ads at the bottom of the page fund the purchace of the rice, which is distributed through the United Nations World Food Program.

So if you're into words and their definitions, i say head to freerice[dot]com now! Perfect if you have a bit of time between chatting with a friend and checking your facebook account.

And you can even change the topic, difficulty level and have the choice between playing in English, German, Italian and Spanish. Best part is, the sponsors pay for your donated rice and you don't even have to get out of your comfy chair!



Go on, you know you want to.
It's like Pringles, once you pop you can't stop!
