-   Given a latitude and longitude, looks for places (cities and neighbourhoods)
-   whose IDs can be specified in a call to :func:`update_status` to appear as
-   the name of the location. This call provides a detailed response about the
-   location in question; the :func:`nearby_places` function should be preferred
-   for getting a list of places nearby without great detail.

-   :param lat: The location's latitude.
-   :param long: The location's longitude.
-   :param accuracy: Specify the "region" in which to search, such as a number
-                    (then this is a radius in meters, but it can also take a
-                    string that is suffixed with ft to specify feet).
