###iOS Geocoding Services A suite of Objective-C hooks for Google's location APIs.

• MJGeocoder: uses the Google Gecoding API to search for addresses and translate them into latitude and longitude coordinates.
• MJReverseGeocoder: uses the Google Reverse Geocoding API to translate latitude and longitude into a readable address.
• MJPlacesFinder: searches the Google Places for businesses that match a given query. (requires a Google dev API key which can be generated here: http://code.google.com/apis/console)

###Why

• Provides forward geocoding in iOS versions before 5.0.

• Provides Google places search

• Also previously: to avoid a long-standing, random failure condition in MKReverseGeocoder, possibly due to usage of old APIs, or hitting a usage limit imposed by Google. A google search will bring up many documented cases of the issue, such as...
