title: How Do I Get a Place ID from an FTID Using Google Maps API?
body: <p>I am getting an FTID from a expanding a short URL sent to my iOS application.  It has an FTID.  How can I get a place ID from this using the Google Web API?  I tried just using the address returned and searching, but it's really hit and miss.  It seems I should be able to get the place ID directly from the FTID somehow.  Thanks.</p>
