Ask HN: Is there a service that can mail me random links from a website?
My use case is the following -<p>I want to get random Java doc pages from JAVA API documentation. So one day I want to the following link in mail -<p>http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/javax/swing/AbstractAction.html<p>and the next day -<p>http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/util/AbstractMap.html<p>My aim is to go over some random Java class documentation to know about some classes about which I have no knowledge.<p>Is there some service that can do something like this?

In your specific case, you could just just grab all the classes in a big list [1], and pick at random from them.
You don't need to do much to figure out the url from the names, so it's really only the list of names you need.

Yes, I could do that but I just wanted to check if there is already some service that does this.
I think this could be a nice side project - A daily reminder service to go over a subset of some content.
