I'm using Mapbox - much nicer and much cheaper - check them out.

I was trying to set up my first gmaps project a couple of weeks ago using node and ran into a bunch of issues that were hard to resolve due to lack up updated documentation.
Switched over to mapbox and got everything working in like 5 min or so.

I have to say their mapbox-gl-js lib is really slick. Easy to setup and configure.
Thanks, I'll take a look!
Is there a places type autocomplete equivilent for mapbox? I can't see anything in their services list
Check out https://www.mapbox.com/api-documentation/#geocoding
Note - I work at Mapbox
