A few weeks ago, Google turned the street level searching for addresses.

So now in google maps you can just type in the "280 Ferrars St Melbourne" (the location of the Melbourne Drupal Meetings) and it will find the location.

This is really cool, and it make the geocoding of information in australia very easy.

Have a look at http://www.ourbrisbane.com/maps/find-location/ for a great example of an Australian implementation of google maps with geocoding.
