As promised, following my not comprehensive list of old PPC versions of apps that stopped supporting PPC, here now is my not comprehensive list of applications that still, as of this writing, support the platform. There are actually many more, but I thought I'd list a mix of popular titles along with a few that you may not have heard of and should give a try. So download away:
Ableton (music production suite)
Adium (multi-platform chat client)
Audacity (sound recording/editing)
Burn (great disc burning app)
Carbon Copy Cloner (backup utility)
Celestia (astronomy, space simulator)
CorePlayer (I haven't tried this, but everyone who has swears it's the most CPU efficient media player there is)
Cyberduck (ftp)
DropBox (backup and syncing)
GraphicConverter (image editing)
Growl (system notification)
iText Express (TextEdit fork with expanded features, the perfect middle ground between a simple text editor and a huge office suite)
LibreOffice (huge office suite)
Mac DVDRipper Pro (backup your DVDs)
MacFamilyTree (genealogy)
MacTubes (Youtube viewer)
MPEG Streamclip (Quicktime-based video editor, still supports Jaguar!)
MPlayerOSX Extended (advanced GUI for mplayer)
OpenOffice.org (huge office suite)
Perian (extra codecs for Quicktime Player)
SABnzbd (usenet downloader)
Seashore (image editor)
Skim (pdf viewer, note taker)
TenFourFox (really, if you're not using this by now I don't know what more I can say)
ToyViewer (lightweight and surprisingly powerful image viewer/editor)
The Unarchiver (archive decompression, many many formats, essential at this point, just install it and don't look back)
VLC (media player, DVD decoding, streaming, everything)
Warbirds (massively multiplayer online WWII flight simulator)
X Lossless Decoder (CD ripping)
XBMC (all your media are belong to XBMC)
