Twitter Location Parser

A fork of https://github.com/smallrivers/twitter-location-parser with a Clojure friendly API and support for latitude/longitude retrieval.

It has a simplistic API and also a ready to use component.

(use 'qbits.tlp)
(def p (load-parser))
(find-location p "paris")

=>
{:name "Paris",

The component is in qbits.tlp.component, it uses the same api, you just call qbits.tlp/find-location on it once it's started to get a match.
