Trevisan has shown that constructions of pseudo-random generators from hard functions (the Nisan-Wigderson approach) also produce extractors. We show that constructions of pseudo-random generators from one-way permutations (the Blum-Micali-Yao approach) can be used for building extractors as well. Using this new technique we build extractors that do not use designs and polynomial-based error-correcting codes and that are very simple and efficient. For example, one extractor produces each output bit separately in
O
(log
2
n
) time. These extractors work for weak sources with min entropy λ
n
, for arbitrary constant λ> 0, have seed length
O
(log
2
n
), and their output length is ≈
n
λ
/3
