Web content is the fastest route to live data on a screen: if a team already has a dashboard, it can be on the wall today.

## Things to check

- **Logins.** Pages behind a sign-in need a way to stay authenticated on the screen.
- **Layout.** Design for the screen's resolution; a desktop page may be tiny on a TV.
- **Offline.** Live web pages need a connection, unlike cached images and video.
