 United States dollar - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The dollar is also used as the standard unit of currency in international markets for commodities such as gold and oil.
Economist Paul Samuelson and others maintain that the overseas demand for dollars allows the United States to maintain persistent trade deficits without causing the value of the currency to depreciate and the flow of trade to readjust.
Several oil-producing Gulf Arab countries, including Saudi Arabia and Kuwait, also peg their currencies to the dollar, since the dollar is the currency used in the international oil trade.

 CBC News Indepth: The Canadian Dollar
In early 2002, the Canadian dollar was trading at record lows, but given Canada's better economic performance in terms of cutting government debt and deficits, and the growth and inflation figures, it should have been no surprise when the loonie took off, he said.
While the Canadian dollar is constantly being measured against its U.S. counterpart because Canada and the U.S. are neighbours and the world's largest trading partnership, the loonie is just one of the national currencies that are valued in U.S. dollars, the closest thing to world money.
As the dollar jumped, companies that buy in U.S. dollars but sell in loonies, like petroleum refiners (which buy oil in U.S. dollars but sell gasoline in loonies) or telecommunication providers (which buy telecom equipment in U.S.-dollar markets, but bill Canadian subscribers in Canadian dollars) should be ahead.

 Australian Dollar Encyclopedia Article, Information, History and Biography @ NaturalResearch.org
The Australian dollar is currently the sixth-most-traded currency in world foreign exchange markets (behind the US dollar, the yen, the euro, the British pound, and the Canadian dollar) accounting for approximately 4-5% of worldwide foreign exchange transactions.
The Australian dollar was at that time worth 980 milligrams of gold.

 Dollar
The overvalued dollar has resulted in “the loss of about 740,000 manufacturing jobs (about 4% of the total manufacturing jobs), a decrease of nearly $100 billion in annual profits and a $40 billion (about 25 % of US manufacturing investment) fall of investment in the domestic manufacturing sector.
A decline in the dollar’s value gives way to an increase in manufacturing jobs, rise in American exports and creation of an accounts balance for the US economy.
The main reason for the fall of the dollar is America’s federal and trade deficit.

 Museletter # 149 / August 2004: The Endangered US Dollar
For decades the US dollar has served as the world's default currency.
If a run on the US dollar were to occur, then the only financial solution would be to create even more dollars (presumably through government borrowing), which of course wouldn't actually solve the problem and would in the long run make matters worse.
The checks we are not talking about are not just hoarded paper dollars (though there are billions of these stuffed in mattresses around the world) but dollar-denominated investments and securities, including T-bills, stocks, and mortgages.

 Revisited - The Real Reasons for the Upcoming War in Iraq: A Macroeconomic and Geostrategic Analysis of the Unspoken ...
The dollar, now a fiat currency, is at a 16-year trade-weighted high despite record US current-account deficits and the status of the US as the leading debtor nation.
You'd have foreign funds stream out of the U.S. stock markets and dollar denominated assets, there'd surely be a run on the banks much like the 1930s, the current account deficit would become unserviceable, the budget deficit would go into default, and so on.
Indeed, the flawed economic and tax policies and of the Bush administration resulting in years of projected deficits may be exacerbating the weakness of the dollar, if not outright hastening some countries to diversify their central bank reserve funds with euros as an alternative to the dollar.

 Euro Trash - Even drug dealers are giving up on the dollar. By Daniel Gross
But among a subset of global cash connoisseurs, the dollar is losing ground to the euro—and it has nothing to do with concerns over U.S. multilateralism.
But between January 2002 and August 2004, Grant notes, the percentage of private Russian currency transactions employing the dollar fell from 94.1 percent to 84 percent while the euro's share rose from nothing to about 15 percent.
Many of the $100 bills circulating throughout the globe are essentially loans that we never have to pay back.

 About the US Dollar at internetional.se
An immediate resumption of the gradual decline of the dollar, as in the period 2002-03, cumulating in a fall of at least another 20%, is needed to reduce the deficits to sustainable levels.
China and other Asian countries have - because of massive dollar purchases to prevent their currencies appreciating - emerged as the financiers of the US's current account and fiscal deficits, providing cheap capital that has kept the dollar's decline orderly and helped bring economic growth and low interest rates.
If the dollar falls by 20% and the number of goods imported falls by 20%, the sum of dollars sent abroad remains the same: Americans purchase fewer imported goods, but spend more on the ones they do buy.

South Korea's central bank, which holds a large chunk of U.S. Treasuries, said Monday it planned to spread its reserves, which are the world's fourth largest, among a greater variety of currencies.
NEW YORK (Reuters) — The dollar tumbled Tuesday as markets grew concerned about the likely impact of South Korea's plan to diversify its reserves out of U.S. assets, pushing the currency below key technical support levels.

 Asia Ponders 'Exit Strategy' from the Dollar

Japan now has an amazing $741 billion in dollar reserves—which have lost $111 billion in value, compared to the amount of machinery, for example, which the same cash bought 15 months ago inside Japan.

Countries don't always stay on the Gold Standard, and they may also re-value their currency, changing the price that gold can be bought for.
There was a point where it was cheaper to buy and ship the gold than to simply perform a simple currency purchase, and this link to the Gold Standard imposed an upper and lower limit on how many dollars you could get for your pound.
Currency is like any other commodity - when it is popular, the price goes up; when people don't want it, the price goes down.
