What is RANDOM.ORG?
RANDOM.ORG offers true random numbers to anyone on the Internet. The randomness comes from atmospheric noise, which for many purposes is better than the pseudo-random number algorithms typically used in computer programs. People use RANDOM.ORG for holding drawings, lotteries and sweepstakes, to drive games and gambling sites, for scientific applications and for art and music. The service has existed since 1998 and was built and is being operated by Mads Haahr of the School of Computer Science and Statistics at Trinity College, Dublin in Ireland.
As of today, RANDOM.ORG has generated 928.2 billion random bits for the Internet community.

Comments and Reviews
I mean, it's not a rocket science. It does exactly what it states. Whenever you feel yourself in the mood to say: Alea jacta est, you could just use it instead of going across the Rubicon
True randomness (as far as such thing exists). Not pseudorandom.
I recently found that random.org has official mobile apps.
