There's a site called FreeRice.com which donates rice to the hungry via the U.N. by having site visitors match words to their meaning(the money comes from advertising displayed on the pages). It's pretty nifty, amusing if you're a geek like me, and can teach you some new words whether you are or not. The difficulty scales from vocab levels of 1 to 50, though the FAQ says it's rare for anyone to ever get above 48.
I'm hitting consistently around level 41, so tell me if you beat that and I'll go back to donating more rice.

Side note to computer geeks: If you're using AdBlock for Firefox or other ad-blocking software, please disable it for this site, otherwise they don't get the money they need to pay for the rice.
