Memo

https://memo-web.herokuapp.com

A simple social network to share the worst moments in day. Wait for the approval before see it available, if not anyway you've let that go. But don't worry, always you'll have something to tell us back.

Release: v1.0.0

Status: Done and working on future release.

About the idea: This project was born to give a space to throw your daily problems and laugh about, and is the result of my web development skills acquired on the last months. I want to collect some good stories here, so if you are interested in collaborate in some way or just to give a suggestion feel free to contact me.
