What scripts do you keep there? What are your use cases?
- Current time in a few different time zones (work is scattered around the world, and log files are always in UTC, so it's handy to have those there at a glance)
- Wifi network name. Our office has multiple wifi access points with the same SSID, so the script uses the AP's MAC address to figure out which one I'm actually connected to
- Current latency to google.com via VPN (I live in China so if internet isn't working, the VPN is always the first thing to troubleshoot)
Ones that I've thought about adding but haven't gotten around to it:
- Status of our cloud monitoring (i.e. a green square if things are OK, red square if not)
