Magic Mirror 2

I wanted to set up a default dashboard for my TV -- so when I wake up in the morning I would see what await me for the day. 

After investigating possible packages it seems that MagicMirror2 seems to have the most momentum.  

I really need to think more about what my dashboard should really have.  Like what would be useful to me on an ongoing basis and how does that interact with other devices such as my Smartphone.

Default Modules Used:

• Date/Time
• Weather
• Calendar
  • Personal
  • Conferences

Modules Used:

• MMM-AVStock for displaying the stock market
• worldclock for displaying different time zones
• email-mirror for displaying recent emails

Modules that I would like to see developed:

• Calgary Transit Times (upcoming buses for a stop)
• FogBugz Issue Tracker
• GitHub Issue Tracker
• Shopping List
• Task List
• Daily Reminder
