title: Methods for Geotagging or Geolabelling Text Content
body: <p>What are some good algorithms for automatically labeling text with the city / region  or origin?  That is, if a blog is about New York, how can I tell programatically.  Are there packages / papers that claim to do this with any degree of certainty?  </p>
  
  <p>I have looked at some tfidf based approaches, proper noun intersections, but so far, no spectacular successes, and I'd appreciate ideas!  </p>
  
  <p>The more general question is about assigning texts to topics, given some list of topics.</p>
  
  <p>Simple / naive approaches preferred to full on Bayesian approaches, but I'm open.</p>
