Would you like to improve your vocabulary and help feed a third world country in one fell swoop?

Well here's your chance!

Go to www.freerice.com and for every word you get right they will done 20 grains of rice through the UN Fight to End World Hunger.

What have you done to help the world and your mind today?

luv and kisses,

Great website!! Thanks for posting. Think I made it to around 1000 before I had to log off.. Vocabulary is one of my strong suits and that was a fun way to test myself a little and feel good about it.

Any more website gems like those?

Yes I got to 3700 before I just had to say see-ya to that site but felt good helping and plan on going back every day to help more and more. Yes, I posted it on my myspace bulletin too and have had quite a few positive responses.

Oh yeah and the website www.popcap.com has a few more games that improve your mind but don't necessarily help the world 'searchingfortwo'. I personally am a fan of Bookworm, but then again I'm a huge Scrabble fan so I guess that explains that!
