Dashboard is a display and management system for Mac OS X desktop utilities, called widgets. Developers can create widgets, such as a clock or a calculator, to provide functionality that doesn't require the complexity of a large application. Widgets can also act as an interface to other applications; for example, a widget can act as a remote control for iTunes.
