After being ignored, marginalised and then removed from the keyboard, it looks like the venerable OS X Dashboard just took one more step towards being excised completely. I'm honestly surprised it took this long. In it's prime, it was good for quick tasks (like using the calculator widget) or checking some information at a glance. However, that's also what the iPhone is good at. My own personal shift away from the Dashboard corresponds exactly to when I bought my first iOS device. *

And now, for much of what the Dashboard does, the Apple Watch is even better than the iPhone.**

Just kill it, already.

* An iPod Touch, as it happens, but the same principle applies.

** Not as a calculator, though. Been there, hated that.
