Looks like Twitter was also ‘Made on a Mac’:
At Twitter, software engineers use Mac systems running the most recent version of Mac OS X. Twitter was built using software tools like Ruby on Rails, which is provided as part of Mac OS X. Lead Engineer Alex Payne notes that engineers tap into other tools such as TextMate, a friendly and powerful code editor available only for the Mac.
Good insight on how Twitter is influenced by Apple.
