A-ha! I have started a Free Rice team here. To join, you have to make an account, and then join the group. If you want your totals to count towards the team total, you have to log in while you

For those who haven't played in a while, Free Rice now both starts at an easier level, and has much harder high levels. When I'm playing English vocabulary, I now start myself at level 20 or 30, rather than working through 60 words of elementary school spelling lists. But the other categories are a ton of fun. Tonight I did basic math, and then had to google how to divide fractions! And then I did French vocab, and didn't get one wrong until level neuf! I also like doing the "identify famous paintings" one, because, c'mon, paintings!

For those who haven't played, FreeRice is a trivia game that fundraises for the World Food Programme, which is my charity of choice. While the amount that you actually, personally contribute is limited (I've counted; 100 grains of rice is about a teaspoonful), it is a pleasant diversion, and one that appears to be a net social positive.

So, come. Play. Geek out. It's fun.
