great ideas come out of love!!!

So, I came across this site. It was started by a dad to help his son prepare for SAT. And then he put it out there on the public space. If you are an NPR fan, you might have heard about it on radio. I saw it in one of my e-mails. And it's just a great concept I think. Here is the website: http://www.freerice.com

While you are playing and having fun, you are working for a higher cause. The way it works is..
1. You are playing a vocabulary quiz.
2. Each time you play, an advertisement appears at the bottom that generates revenue.
3. For every correct answer, 20grain of rice is donated to the needy, in association with United Nations.

I think this is a great idea, and I wish it was me who got that idea in the first place. :) Who gets such brilliant ideas!!!? I want to be in that company..
