For anyone who has wondered how to have a meter on your desktop to estimate time in traffic to a set destination, its actually very easy. I have created a demo on how to do this in the attached ZIP file. You need to fill in the configuration with a google maps API key as well as your start and end locations. It will then assign a different picture depending on how much time it will take to get home. (Configuration of the time thresholds also required.)
Example of the skin:
