Geocoder.us geocoding. Address: paris, france. Result: 2: couldn't find this address! sorry
geocoder.us was unable to geocode address: paris, france

geocoder.us broken... probably not maintained anymore or something... switch to new geocoder in Ruby Geokit

Need to update to point at Google Geocoder service v3: https://github.com/geokit/geokit

This bug prohibits the creation of any new maps. "1 error prohibited this map from being saved." image
