Grandpy Bot is a Python application with the Flash framework. You can ask him about a place and he will give you his address with this position on Google Maps and tell you a little story about this place.
The project uses the Google Cloud Platform APIs to search for address and display the map, while the MediaWiki API allows Grandpy Bot to search for information for this little story.
