Equivalent To Active Desktop?



I had previously asked about making an active tile, but I fear I may have been throwing out what I thought would be a 'simple' solution instead of asking for what I really wanted. I am looking to have something that allows my users to see this content - http://orsl.montana.edu/weather/ORSLweather.php - easily. This page is basically a small image that updates every five minutes with a new image showing the current weather from a weather station at a university.

Turning on the way back machine I was able to accomplish this using Active Desktop in Windows XP and Vista. With Windows 7 I wrote some code to make a Windows Gadget and even used an add-on to re-enable gadgets in Windows 8. I had hoped making an active Windows Tile for the Start Menu would be fairly easy, but it turns out that is not the case.

I am open to a solution that allows this content to be on the Desktop or Start Menu and regularly update. Any thoughts?
