Dashboards are commonly and often best exemplified in things like business intelligence apps, but it's clear that this kind of data's not just going to be whizzing around the public Internet.
As a result, it's needle in a haystack time. Alex Kirtland wrote a good article (sans pretty pictures) at http://www.boxesandarrows.com/view/executive_dashboards back in 2003 but it's scratching the surface of a huge and, in terms of concrete examples, obscure place whose citizens are most definitely "off-world". If you can grab a look at Stephen Few's "Information Dashboard Design" (O'Reilly), it orbits several miles above anything I've read online, in terms of trying to figure out the best method to visualise a particular dataset and then how to put the collection together. The writing's as dry as a bone but totally on point and the book's certainly one of those special few that can alter your perceptions of a particular subject quite fundamentally. Bonne chance!
