Hi folks. Trying to get google-geo to work, but I am seeing errors.

#!/usr/bin/ruby

require 'Google-geo'

mykey = 'blahblahblah' addy1 = '1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA' # 37.42246, -122.08394

geo = Google::Geo.new mykey res = geo.locate addy1 puts res.coordinates

…and the error:

/Library/Ruby/Site/2.0.0/rubygems/core\_ext/kernel\_require.rb:55:in `require': cannot load such file -- Google-geo (LoadError) &nbsp;&nbsp;from /Library/Ruby/Site/2.0.0/rubygems/core_ext/kernel_require.rb:55:in `require' &nbsp;&nbsp;from pdev.rb:6:in `\<main\>'

Not sure why it can’t load it as it’s just installed. I can’t get anything to work in irb either.

Any advice appreciated.

Cheers
