Random Line Picker Chooses Items From A List

If you’ve ever been tasked with choosing a random winner from a list of people, there’s an easier way than choosing from a bowl-full of tiny pieces of paper. Take Random Line Picker, for example. The Random Line Picker is a tiny online tool that chooses a random item from a text list. Simply paste your list with each item on a separate line, and then click the Pick 1 Line button to choose a single item from the list. If you are worried about privacy or giving a website your list, the Productivity Portfolio site has a tutorial for selecting random names with Excel using the RANDBETWEEN() function to assign a random number to each record, using the smallest number as the winner. This simple app doesn’t do a lot, but it does exactly what it advertises quickly and easily.
