Free Rice!

Lets face it, everyone needs a little distraction from work sometimes. Whether you are fed up with whatever project you are working on at work, are a college student who is "busy writing a paper," or just sitting at home and avoiding doing the dishes, everyone wants a little distraction. Many turn to online games.

But wouldn't it be great if you could waste time and be productive at the same time? Oxymoron? Yes. But by playing vocabulary games at www.freerice.com you are:

1. Learning new vocabulary.

2. Sending free rice to hungry people across the world.

3. Distracting yourself from the task at hand.

Is there a better solution for your procrastination needs?

I've donated over 10,000 in 30 minutes using the French words one :) I think it's the easiest, the language for the french one is only around Grade 4-6 french so it's super easy!

Get an autoclick program and leave it on overnight or while you're at school or work.
