Exemplary systems and methods for network authentication are provided. Exemplary systems include an application program interface configured for receiving a request for an authentication code, a code generator in communication with the application program interface, the code generator configured to generate the authentication code, and the application program interface further configured to receive the generated authentication code and allow an application to communicate digital data with a web-based social network. Further systems include the generated authentication code being received from a network device without an Internet browser and the received generated authentication code allowing an application to communicate digital data with a web-based social network for an extended period of time. Exemplary methods include receiving a request for an authentication code, generating the authentication code, receiving the generated authentication code, and allowing an application to communicate digital data with a web-based social network.

1. A method comprising: receiving a request for an authentication code, the request received by a social networking system from a web browser of a user of the social networking system;generating the requested authentication code by the social networking system;sending the generated authentication code from the social networking system to the web browser of the requesting user of the social networking system, wherein the authentication code is providable to a network device of the user without a web browser;receiving the generated authentication code by the social networking system from a third party application, wherein the third party application obtained the authentication code from the network device of the user without a web browser; andallowing the third party application to communicate with the social networking system conditional upon receiving the authentication code, by providing information about the user from the social networking system to the third party application,wherein the third party application is configured to provide application content to the network device of the user based on the information about the user received from the social networking system. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein the received generated authentication code allows the third party application to communicate digital data with the social networking system for over twenty-four hours. 3. The method of claim 1, wherein the authentication code is generated by the social networking system. 4. The method of claim 1, wherein the third party application has not been checked for problems by an administrator of the social networking system. 5. The method of claim 1, wherein the third party application resides on a server external to the social networking system. 6. The method of claim 1, wherein the third party application is a desktop application. 7. The method of claim 1, wherein the third party application is a web-based application. 8. The method of claim 1, wherein the network device without a web browser is a game console. 9. The method of claim 1, wherein the network device without a web browser is a picture frame. 10. The method of claim 1, wherein the network device without a web browser is a navigation device for a vehicle. 11. The method of claim 1, wherein the network device without a web browser is a digital camera. 12. The method of claim 1, wherein the social networking system provides information about the user to the third party application subject to privacy rules set by the user. 13. The system of claim 12, wherein the application program interface is configured to allow the third party application to communicate with the social networking system by providing information about the user from the social networking system to the third party application subject to privacy rules set by the user. 14. The computer readable medium of claim 13, wherein the social networking system provides information about the user to the third party application subject to privacy rules set by the user. 15. The computer readable medium of claim 13, wherein the information about the user received from the social networking system comprises information about one or more other users with whom the user has established a connection in the social networking system. 16. The system of claim 12, wherein the information about the user received from the social networking system comprises information about one or more other users with whom the user has established a connection in the social networking system. 17. The method of claim 1, wherein the information about the user received from the social networking system comprises information about one or more other users with whom the user has established a connection in the social networking system. 18. A system comprising: an application program interface configured for receiving a request for an authentication code, the request received by a social networking system from a web browser of a user of the social networking system; anda code generator in communication with the application program interface, the code generator configured to generate the requested authentication code;wherein the application program interface is further configured to: send the generated authentication code from the social networking system to the web browser of the requesting user of the social networking system, wherein the authentication code is providable to a network device of the user without a web browser,receive the generated authentication code from a third party application, wherein the third party application obtained the authentication code from the network device of the user without a web browser, andallow the third party application to communicate with the social networking system conditional upon receiving the authentication code, by providing information about the user from the social networking system to the third party application, wherein the third party application is configured to provide application content to the network device of the user based on the information about the user received from the social networking system. 19. The system of claim 18, wherein the received generated authentication code allows the third party application to communicate digital data with the social networking system for over twenty-four hours. 20. A non-transitory computer readable medium having embedded thereon a program, the program being executable by a processor for performing a method comprising: receiving a request for an authentication code, the request received by a social networking system from a web browser of a user of the social networking system;generating the requested authentication code by the social networking system;sending the generated authentication code from the social networking system to the web browser of the requesting user of the social networking system, wherein the authentication code is providable to a network device of the user without a web browser;receiving the generated authentication code by the social networking system from a third party application, wherein the third party application obtained the authentication code from the network device of the user without a web browser; andallowing the third party application to communicate with the social networking system conditional upon receiving the authentication code, by providing information about the user from the social networking system to the third party application, wherein the third party application is configured to provide application content to the network device of the user based on the information about the user received from the social networking system.
