Don't think anyone has posted this already... I think it is a good idea and also a bit of fun learning at the same time.

I visit that website from time to time. It's good to help with donations but I sometimes feel angry at myself and my limited vocabulary - I usually float around ~34th level, and that's not very high.

Unsure whether this actually belongs here, but don't have the interest to properly search.
Free Rice ladies and gentlemen, if we, have the time to spend our lives on a online game with moderately difficult vocabulary, we could at least spare some time to test them out and win 10 kernels of rice per word. It just opened and already donated 1,519,627,180 grains of rice.
Who says the world needs to go vegetarian to stop world hunger.
Spread the news!

Um, Caffrey posted this as well, I think. A few topics down, I think. Very long title.
