I am using it for a simple dashboard type wiki. It is very much still a prototype.When I develop my tiddlywiki development skills sufficiently I plan to move it from a macro to a startup module and built a small plugin so others can use it.
At the moment it only updates images with a class of "u5m" (update every 5 minutes). It is only fetching updates to images that are actually displayed (well actually show up in the document DOM). My dashboard uses [img class="u5m"[/path/to/image.jpg]] to insert the images. The images I'm using are generated by rrdtool. I built it this way so I could get some basic system reporting on a tiny (512MB RAM) VPS. I initially tried installing an open source tool to do the monitoring but it was using too much RAM. Now I run a shell script from cron once every 5 minutes that updates the rrds maintained by rrdtool and updates the graphs. Nice and simple. And conveniently, I use the tiddlywiki Journal to make notes.
