hi,

I have few queries Regarding geoCoding.

1) If i need tweets from a country then i have to specify latitude and
logitude of a country (ex UK), which we can get from google or yahoo. but
how can i get the radius until which the country is covered. If I give
approximate range then tere is possibility of getting tweets from other
region also. how can i get the radius for a particular country?

2) As we can get latitudes and longitudes from google or yahoo geocode
API's, is it free?. My application is a commercial Application. DO they
charge anything for that?

Please reply soon.
