Free Rice for Free Time Killing


I am not what people call environmentally aware. I drive a small car not because of the gas crisis but because I don't like paying for gas, i buy long lasting low power light bulbs not because I don't want to waste but because i don't like paying extra electric bills, and I don't donate money at the supermarket when they ask me because i find that to be completely unacceptable to bother me when i am just trying to get some food and get home.

But what I do like is fun little internet things. To the right is a banner linked to www.freerice.com. This is where you play a game trying to get definitions correct and while you are doing it you are also donating Rice to the UN. Donating rice is good and all, the real fun is trying to get the words correct, I wasted about an hour just trying to get a lot of words right and I ended up donating a boatload of rice.

This is a smart way to setup a donation website and I suggest everyone check it out.
