FreeRice - Build your vocabulary and feed the hungry at the same time.

No, I'm not kidding. FreeRice is a great game for building your vocabulary. You just go to the website, freerice.com, and you see a word. You click on the definition (or, what you think is the definition) given four choices, and it tells you if you're right. The more words you get right, the higher your vocabulary level goes (the highest level is currently 60). My highest is 44; how high can you go? Oh, and, of course, for each word you get right, FreeRice donates the money for 20 grains of rice to the United Nations World Food Program, thanks to ads on their site (but the ads aren't very obnoxious and intrusive, thankfully). It's really a great game, you should check it out!
