Are You Smarter Than Multiple Choice? A Rice Site is Groovy and Helps People Out!




In reading another blog, I have come across a really cool site. I'm not one for hanging out on websites for longer than necessary, but here is one that tantalizes those of us in love with words. Isn't that why we read blogs? No? Oh, you're here just for my opinions and blatherings, I see.






http://www.freerice.com/ displays a vocabulary word with multiple choice answers. For every right answer of yours, Free Rice donates 20 grains of rice (paid for by sponsors). It costs you nothing. Or whatever another word for "nothing" is.






It may not sound like a lot but I know my piddly little ego likes to be told by an automated website that I know my stuff.






So go play! And pass it on.
