Use the network section of your web inspector (because you're using one, aren't you?) to get the response and understand the problem. Then post it here. — MaxArt, Jun 30 '12 at 09:45
Tats is correct http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/json?latlng=40.714224,-73.961452&sensor=true&callback=test shows `{...}` (instead of `test({..})`). — Rob W, Jun 30 '12 at 09:46

You are trying to get a JSONP response from google maps , which it doesnt support.

Try this instead,

<script src="http://maps.google.com/maps/api/js?sensor=false" type="text/javascript"></script>

<script>  
    $(function(){   
        var geocoder = new google.maps.Geocoder();
        var latlng = new google.maps.LatLng(40.714224,-73.961452);
        geocoder.geocode(
            {latLng  : latlng }, 
            function(dataObject, statusObject) {
                console.log(dataObject);
            }
        );
    });
</script>
