Picok: An Open Source Personal Information Manager

| Picok is developed in Switzerland so most of the existing modules, or
| portlets as they're known in this app, are aimed at European users. Current
| portlets include a Swiss weather radar, Pons German-English dictionary, and
| European rail schedule. However, the project wiki has clear instructions for
| creating custom portlets on your own.
