Trivia
- Birdie is the only Microsoft Agent character that was ever created by Costas Andriotis.
- The creator of Birdie also developed software such as Word Agent,[1] a software that worked similar to how the Office Assistants did in Microsoft Word, and Agent Scripting Host,[2] which would have likely worked similar to MAWS but for Internet Explorer 4.0 instead.
- As with most classical Microsoft Agents, he has his own color table to utilize multiple unique colors to make the character seem higher quality.
