Free OCR is a free online optical character reader, which will convert text in an image file into a .txt file which can be copied and pasted. I just discovered its existence tonight, and already find it useful. I took a screen shot of a page that had uncopyable text on it (in .gif form, in this case), saved the screen shot to Irfanview, then uploaded the image to Free OCR and in just a few seconds had the text file.
