I was going to write more of a description of Dashboard here, but DJ Adams already did a great job: "The heart of dashboard is a matching and sorting engine that receives information (in the form of "cluepackets" - how evocative is that?) from frontend applications (like your IM and email clients) and asks the plugged-in backends to find stuff relevant to that information, which is then displayed in the sidebar-style window, designed to be glanced at rather than pored over. It's a lovely open architecture in that you can (build and) plug in whatever frontend or backend lumps of code you think of." DJ's blog is complete with lots of links.
