Get Physical: A Hilarious Game of Badminton
I don't know what it is about playing badminton, but that game is just so funny to me. I love the dinky racquets, the flimsy net and of course the shuttlecock (I call it a birdy) - it seems to have a mind of its own!
The game is pretty simple.

Website of the Day: From a Birdie
You know the drill: you get a Facebook reminder that it's your friend's birthday, so you end up writing her an email, or you post a brief note to her Facebook wall. Rather than follow everyone else's lead by posting an impersonal b-day message on Facebook, why not create a collective album of online letters that you and your friends can send to the birthday girl on her special day? A cool new site called From a Birdie, which I found on makeuseof, is similar to the site GroupCard because it allows an entire group of people to collaborate on a personalized card or letter.
Designer Spotlight: Birdie
Birdie designer Kate Sutton has been a golfer since the age of 12, but it was only as of the launch of her golf-inspired clothing line in 2006 that she started to really look feminine, fashionable and sexy on and off the driving range. Thanks to Kate's frustration with masculine and unflattering women's golf gear, we can all get a little preppy even if we can't swing a golf club for the life of us.
Kate set out to shake up tradition and she did just that with her colorful polos, femme sweaters, short pleated skirts, fitted blazers, Bermuda shorts, modern golf caps (so much hotter than the one your dad sports), and bags.
Mommy's Lil Helper: My Dirty Birdie
Lil munchkins make messes and while moms are quick to pull out their wipes, wash cloths and stain sticks, there's an easier way to deal with the spills that come with kids. My Dirty Birdie is a line of genius shirts that incorporate stains in the design. Who better than a tot to pull off the splattered with mud, dropped a lil peanut butter and jelly, or squeezed a bit too much juice from my box tees?
Pampered Pals: Wordy Birdy
If you're trying to train your bird to speak but you don't have the time for one-on-one lessons or to pay for a tutor, try out the Wordy Birdy Speech Training Device. Record your own voice speaking the words you want your bird to learn, and this device repeats words and phrases over and over for a period of time ranging from 30 seconds to 30 minutes (read: leave the house now). Because it is digital, there is no tape or moving parts to find themselves in your bird's mouth and, unless you use it nearly 24/7, it should work on four AA batteries for up to six months.
Courteney and Busy's Cougar Town Bikini Bodies Hit the Beach
Courteney Cox and Busy Philipps showed off their bikini bodies Friday while filming Cougar Town in LA. Both ladies made it a bring-your-daughter-to-work day, with Coco Arquette tagging along with Courteney while Busy toted her young Birdie. Courteney stopped to chow down on a burger between takes, showing off a range of suits as she and Busy kept plugging away on the first season of their successful new show that you guys are loving.
Desire/Acquire: Anthropologie Songbird Chandelier
Featuring finches, lories, and parakeets behind a delicate copper wire, the Anthropologie Songbird Chandelier ($798) is a bit gimmicky, but I can still definitely see its appeal. It would look great along with some busy, bird-themed wallpaper — like the one in Domino editor Rita Konig's foyer. But for a piece that requires a very specific design scheme, I certainly wouldn't spend nearly $800.

New Product Alert! Wonderdog Birdie
There's a new collar in town from Wonderdog – hello, little Birdie. No tweet tweeting here but your pup (who's naturally getting a new collar for his Spring collection) should go cuckoo for these three items.
Featuring blue birds, red birds or pink birds, I love the contrasting background colors for each, sure to pop on coats of all colors.
