Stop World Hunger
« on: Jan 14, 2008, 10:43: AM »
a site that is trying to end world hunger by donating rice

http://freerice.com/index.php
its a vocabulary game, get the right meaning of the word and u donate some rice, the more words you get right the higher level you go and the harder the words will be

i cant see how these sites work eiher, trying to put a guilt trip into knowing the meaning of words. why cant they just donate as much rice as they have. and i have no idea how guessing questions can fund it either.

1140 grains of virtual rice

basically they make money through the advertising at the bottom, so they buy the rice through the advertising as they get it, they havent got a warehouse full of rice. thats why setting up a programme to do it wont work, as it blocks up the servers and bots dont buy advertising, so none of the rice could be paid for anyway.

personally if the advertising work, its good... buttttt i never see how anyone ever buys anything via ads like that :dontknow:
