You can display whatever information you like in the "additional notes" 
for each server.  You specify a URL in the "notes_url" directive of each 
server entry in hostextinfo.cfg

I use this to not only display information on each host, but to hook 
into a custom cgi that allows the nagios user to perform basic tests 
like ping, traceroute, nmap, etc.
