I found this website while surfing the net looking at some worthy charities, and I found a something special.

FreeRice.com

It's a word quiz and all money raised from ad banners go to feeding the hungry. As you play more, the words get more challenging, and easier when you get them wrong. It's a fun way to test your knowledge and maybe learn some interesting new words. It can also be addicting, so don't say I didn't warn you!

edit: I didn't realize this link was mentioned on the show and posted already when I posted this. I hadn't caught up with the latest shows. Shame on me. But it's still a great link!

Thanks, Gedaly. It's been mentioned in the forums a couple of times already, we received about a dozen emails about it, and, as you write, last week's show featured it.
