Widget Manager is a free tool that allows you to manage your installed widgets in a elegant manner.
This application comes as a preferences panel. You are asked, when launching the application for the first time, if it should or shouldn't install itself into the 'System Preferences' panel.
After installing it, you can see a new item in the 'System Preferences' into the 'Other' category. You can access it and manage pretty quickly your installed widgets.
You can open, enable/disable, uninstall or reveal in Finder every installed widget. You can get information about the widgets that usually isn't available very easily from the Dashboard.
Widget Manager includes features like the version number of the installed widget or drag-and-drop install. Another interesting feature is the fact that it can show the widget producer's Website.
Pluses: it is a very simple program and very useful in the same time.
Drawbacks / flaws:
In conclusion: the application is pretty good and a real improvement for the Mac OS X widget manager.

Widget Manager Publisher's Description
Widget Manager is a Preference Pane for Mac OS X 10.4 that allows you to inspect, remove, and disable Dashboard Widgets. Widget Manager is a convenient way to manage all the Widgets on your system, including the standard Apple Widgets. Since it handles removing the .wdgt file as well as restarting Dashboard, Widget Manager eliminates Dashboard display issues when you remove a Widget by hand, and is also a great defense against potentially harmful Widgets.
