Quite possibly the coolest thing EVER
May. 30th, 2008 12:52 amI'm lazy. I admit it. I may couch it in terms of "optimal efficiency" but really, I'm lazy. So charity that is both easy and fun is quite possibly the best thing ever.
Go to www.freerice.com and use your vocabulary to send rice to hungry people. There's a word, and four choices as to its meaning. Pick one. If you're right, 20 grains of rice get banked . I got up to 2000 grains in about 10 minutes. If you get a word wrong, there is no penalty and it comes around again so you get another shot at it. Oh, and they tell you the right word when you guess wrong, so it's pretty easy to get it right the second time.
Also, I learned some new words. Always fun. I'm going to go there every day and give away rice.
Spread this around as far as you can, willya? I have friended 3 people, so I need help getting the word out.
