Search for addresses in Brazil and some new European countries

You can now search for postal addresses in Brazil when posting thru Tagzania's interface (for registered users). That's how we found the US Consulate in Recife, searching for Rua Gonçalves Maia, 163, Recife, BR.

Some additional European countries also have now geocoding: Portugal, Hungary, Poland and the Czech Republic. To test it, we searched for the addresses of some venerable geographical institutions in those countries, and that's how we found the Portuguese Geographical Institute at 107 Rua da Artilharia 1, 1099-052 Lisboa PT, the Institute of Social, Economic and Regional Geography, Poland at ul. Krakowskie Przedmiescie 30  00-921 Warszawa PL, the Geophysical Institute of the Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic at Bocní II, Praha 4, Hlavní mesto Praha 14100, CZ, and the Geographical Research Institute of Hungary, at H-1112 Budapest, Budaörsi út 45 HU.

Remember the tips for address searches, and just add the country codes BR (Brazil), PT (Portugal), PL (Poland), CZ (the Czech Republic) and HU (Hungary) for locations in these new countries with address search capability.
