Awesome project. I will definitely be using this!

The provided example is a great illustration of how to build various layouts and use the various widgets. I find it lacks any examples of real-world data gathering. For us Node newbies, how would one, for example, graph system load of a remote server over time? I think examples like that would help get some people going.

I plan to add more samples. Meanwhile you can use a module like this to get the data for you: https://github.com/kgryte/node-metrics-os
