+A couple weeks ago I released [census-geocoder][git], a [Go][] wrapper
+for the [Census Geocoding Services API][census-api].
+
+### Example
+
+Here's an example application which geocodes the command-line argument
+and then prints the normalized address from the geocoding result of each
+address to standard output:
+
+```go
+package main
+
+import (
+  "fmt"
+  "log"
+  "os"
+  "pablotron.org/census-geocoder/geocoder"
+)
+
+func main() {
+  for _, arg := range(os.Args[1:]) {
+    // get address matches
+    matches, err := geocoder.Locations(arg)
+    if err != nil {
+      log.Fatal(err)
+    }
+
+    // print matches
+    for _, match := range(matches) {
+      fmt.Println(match)
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
