title: Getting Access Token from cookies to use with Facebook Graph API
body: <p>Assuming I have a user logged in to Facebook (Cookies are saved in the browser's cache), what is the simplest way to get its access token?
  I'm experimenting with Facebook's Graph API, and I don't want to bother with creating an application in order to get access tokens (at least not now).</p>
  
  <p>If I remember correctly, a few days ago I went to <a href="http://graph.facebook.com/me" rel="nofollow">http://graph.facebook.com/me</a> on my browser (while being logged in), which redirected me to <a href="http://graph.facebook.com/me?access_token=" rel="nofollow">http://graph.facebook.com/me?access_token=</a>..., but now I get that instead (and no redirection):</p>
  
  <pre><code>{  
        "error":      {  
        "type":    "OAuthException",  
        "message": "An active access token must be used to query information about the current user."  
     }  
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Unfortunately, I couldn't rely on previously answered questions, since I strongly believe things changed very recently.</p>
