Oh wow I was just looking for something like this the other day. The actual calendaring feature isn't as useful to me as a live weather report and daily forecast (next 24 hour weather) plus tide chart. Can this be customized/hacked?

You can point it to an image URL and it will refresh whenever that image changes.

So as long as you can dynamically serve an image of the content you want to see, you can connect the display to it.

Or you can even build an app that others can use (this is experimental still):
