FreeRice.com Tests Your Vocabulary

Share

125_125_banner_a.jpg

A sister site to Poverty.com, FreeRice.com offers an adaptive vocabulary quiz and donates 10 grains of rice through the United Nations for each correct answer. The site's goal is to help end world hunger. Advertisers include Toshiba, Apple, iTunes, Radisson Hotels & Resorts, American Express, Macy's, Fujitsu. Ads rotate below each vocabulary screen where site visitors are asked to pick the word that matches the vocabulary term, such as alveolate (which means honeycombed); prestidigitator (magician); and adjuration (appeal).

I like this game because it gives me an opportunity to feed the hungry, eventhough I cannot donate money for them.

Hey,

Avanoo is a startup that is helping to make the world better by letting people use a new support channel- web presence. Web users can go to Avanoo.com get a badge for a cause and start raising awareness and donations 24/7 effortlessly. And each time one of these badge is clicked, a donation is made to the nonprofit organization on the badge. If you could put a badge on you blog or write about this growing movement, you would be helping to make the world a better place!

Thanks,

Rajesh

Hello there,

Been reading many us are feedup with the huge ebay fees they are charging. I was too, so thouht I was share my info on how I continue to sell many items and pay no listing fees. After some research a few months ago I found:

TheStreet - This is totaly free to signup, use, list and sell your items and has over 4 million views a day. I've found it extremelty usful for UK sales.

CQOUT- Simply put this is Ebay only worldwide competitior, they do charge a $1 signup fee to prove your identity. However all listings are totaly free upto $200 and multimillion views daily from all over the world. This I found is especially good for the US market.

I hope this help some of you improve your sales on this bad time of world econimic markets, so it can only help to get free advertising and sell your items. If anyone knows anymore, please post here so I too can benifit.
