Still time to do a good deed in 2007

[rolanni]

Remember the One Laptop Per Child campaign? Buy a $200 linux-based laptop for a child in an impoverished country? The OLPC folks have been running a Give One, Get One promotion for the month of December, due to end at midnight tonight. If that gift money is burning a hole in your pocket, this might be worth looking into. Or, if you or a child in your life has no need for a bright green and white computer, consider giving one to a child who has need.

And! Don't forget Free Rice. Around here, it's now bigger than FreeCell as the game to play while waiting for that next sentence to find its verb.

Stay safe, stay warm. Have fun. May 2008 be a year of good dreams coming true.

Managed to donate 1000 grains of rice with 41 correct answers (out of 46, I think).

Not bad for me (means I understand more words than I often think I do), and someone will get a bowl of rice for supper.

Thanks for posting that link.
