We use our own algorithm to parse addresses. It works pretty well in
the US and Canada, but fails quickly and badly for addresses in other
countries. We recommend to our users that they edit names and
addresses in Mac OS X's Address Book and sync (so the data ends up in
Google's structured fields) instead of editing in Google Contacts.

Charlie
