Dashboard is a term now being used generally to refer to a web technology based page on which real time information is collated from various sources in the business. The metaphor of dashboard is adopted here to emphasize the nature of the data being displayed on the page, it is a real-time analysis as to how a business is operating, just like on an automobile dashboard real time information is displayed about the performance of that vehicle.More specifically, Dashboard is an application for Apple Inc.'s Mac OS X operating system, used for hosting mini-applications known as Widgets.
