GoGeocode PHP Library Release
Over the past two months or so I’ve been playing with an old pet project of mine that I tend to peck away at when I can’t think of a better to work on.
As part of this project I found myself needing to do a massive amount of geocoding in PHP.
After searching through the various PHP based geocoding libraries online I came to notice that none of them seemed to make use of the APIs ability to return multiple points as well as informational data about each point.
Thus GoGeocode was born.
GoGeocode is an extremely small set of classes for use in querying both the Google and Yahoo geocoding APIs.
I’ve released the code under the MIT License and posted the code at http://code.google.com/p/gogeocode/
Take and enjoy!
Update: The GoGeocode page has been updated with a description, example use case, and a tar.gz archive of the gogeocode-0.1 release tag from SVN.

Joseph,
I just visited http://gogeocode.googlecode.com/ and did not find any code. I must be missing something - can you clue me in?
Thanks

@Paul
Sorry for the confusion, I posted the project late last night and haven’t had time to properly set up the front page.
There are no zipped distributions of the code just yet as I haven’t made them, but all the code is available via the SVN repository.
I’ll be putting up archives of the code tonight.
Thanks for the watchful eye.
