Next time you are looking for something to do on the web, check out the simple to use, free vocabulary quiz FreeRice. It may feel like test prep all over again but this time the stakes are higher, so check your answers before submitting. Each correct answer generates a donation of 20 grains of rice. Read more about the project or just go play. (And if you need help, that's what a dictionary is for.) Thanks to Lisa for pointing out this webgem.
Nov 30 update: Apparently I am de rigeur (and you can be too!). The latest issue of Rolling Stone listed the FreeRice site in its what's hot on the Internet section.

Oh, man. This is fabulous. I can't stop playing this now. Thanks, Michelle. As if I wasn't finding my own ways to be unproductive at work! :)
Got to 1000 grains and forced myself to stop.
I wonder how well the advertising model is working...
