Firefox hits a half-billion downloads

In dollars, for $500 million you and 15 of your friends can fly to the International Space Station.
OR, you can affect change and invite 15 of your friends to play a game and feed 25,000 people. With your help we can break another milestone today with FreeRice.com –500,000,000 grains of donated rice in one day. Imagine helping to feed the hungry while picking up some new vocabulary too!

It's so you learn! Free Rice aims to help people learn new words and feed the hungry at the same time - a double-whammy for people studying for the SAT or anyone else, really.
From the FAQ:

FreeRice automatically adjusts to your level of vocabulary. It starts by giving you words at different levels of difficulty and then, based on how you do, assigns you an approximate starting level. You then determine a more exact level for yourself as you play. When you get a word wrong, you go to an easier level. When you get three words in a row right, you go to a harder level. This one-to-three ratio is best for keeping you at the “outer fringe” of your vocabulary, where learning can take place.

You'd be surprised. Last I heard, FF doesn't even have 15% of the broswer market yet |
