I recently came across this site, FreeRice.com, which I thought it is very nice and creative. It is nice because you can learn vocabulary and help end the world hunger. The idea is very creative. This is how it works: you go to FreeRice.com and play their vocabulary game, for each question answered correctly 10 grains of rice will be donated by the sponsors to help people living in poverty. It is a win-win situation - you get to play the game, FreeRice get the traffics, advertisers get their exposure, and people get the free rice. If you like the idea, please help to spread out the word. For more details, please read their FAQ page.

free rice is SUCH a good idea because not only does it teach us some new words but it gives people in africa a bowl of rice that normaly the’d think was the sort of portion a king would eat!

This is the coolest site ever!!! I wish it had screen names though so you could keep track of how much you have “donated”.

To make it even more fun, and make more people feel like training on this site to do something good for the world, their should be some kind of highscores, in how much rice someone donated like, on the right hand side of the highscores table your name and on the left how much rice he or she donated plus his total rank: example:
Alphasparx, rice donated 1240, rank 856
