I just looked at my activity monitor and discovered that Tweetie is a 64-bit app. It takes up nearly 3GB of virtual memory, which is more than Finder or Spotlight or anything else I ever used. Just want to share my findings with everyone else.

Most apps coming out these days are 64-bit.

I have iWork, iLife, Adobe apps, MS Office, Handbrake, Google Earth, Screenflow, VLC and a whole lot of other apps. None of them are 64-bit. And I find this small time developer that makes a free app (paid version also available) that is 64-bit, it's kind of amazing to me.

Tweetie and GlimmerBlocker are the 2 64-bit programs running on my machine at the moment.
