Can I make a list of the people who've liked a certain Facebook status?

I can’t currently test out this idea, but try to open up the list of people (by clicking the “likes”), and use your mouse to click+drag to select the text of the names. If you drag your mouse downward, it might auto-scroll through the list, allowing you to select (and copy) all of the text at once.

Edit: also, if you paste your text into a word document, there is the “text only” paste option which should give you all of the text without copying other stuff, like formatting.

Why not try getting a single screen shot using a scrolling screen grabber? I used to use SnagIt, but here is an example of a free alternative that might work for you.

Then, you can run the image through OCR to extract the text.

PhiNotPi, you’re right, I could actually click & drag to get all the text! Thanks to you both, because for other situations I bet I can use the scrolling screen grabber too.
