Manually entering a latitude and longitude for each node is a tedious process. Just finding out what those numbers are for a given location less than ideal. One of the most common ways to communicate a location to another person is by using a postal address. How many times do you enter a latitude and longitude into your favorite mapping app to get directions? Hardly ever, right? Most of the time you would just enter the street address and the app "just knows" how to find it. In this lesson, we'll configure our Drupal site to Geocode a postal address into geographic data that our Leaflet map can display.

Over the years we've developed some techniques for practicing that we wanted to share. At Drupalize.Me we take hugging seriously. In this tutorial we'll look at the art, and science, of giving a good hug. The Merriam Webster dictionary defines the word hug as; squeeze (someone) tightly in one's arms, typically to express affection.
Did you know there are all kinds of different hugs that you can give? In this tutorial we'll look at:
- Defining what a hug is
- Some of the many types of hugs in the world today
- Precautions you may want to familiarize yourself with before hugging
- And the importance of proper technique
Lets go ahead and get started shall we?
