+.. method:: API.reverse_geocode([lat], [long], [accuracy], [granularity], [max_results])
+
+   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).  If this is not passed in, then it is assumed to be 0m
+   :param granularity: Assumed to be `neighborhood' by default; can also be `city'.
+   :param max_results: A hint as to the maximum number of results to return. This is only a guideline, which may not be adhered to.
