GeoCoding with OSM, Bing and Google through the PowerShell - no addon needed

.Synopsis
This function uses the Google Maps API to Geocode an address.
.DESCRIPTION
This function uses the Google Maps API to Geocode an address by sending a web request to the API and then processes the resulting XML file for the longitude & latitude. The Google API has a threshold and when violated, you get an OVER_QUERY_LIMIT error based on the number of calls made per second and per day. If the function encounters this error it will pause for 2 seconds and throw a warning. If two subsequent calls fail, then the daily max call may have been reached and it will error out.
.EXAMPLE
PS C:\> "7171 Southwest Parkway, Austin, TX" | Get-GeoCode
