GPostCard

Project Description

GPostcard is a Web Application that can generate postcards by selecting the best image available online based on the postcard's text.
By ticking the location, the image selector will get a representative image of the current location of the user. Moreover, the user can also input a message via microphone, allowing accesability. In the end, the generated postcard can be sent to any Gmail user.
