Taiwan LeRoi Brown is a one man social networking machine. During the dot-com boom he was a volunteer updater for many popular entertainment websites. While writing about the newest movies and shows he began to learn web design. Journalism was only half his passion. Taiwan wanted to be an on-air presenter. In 2003 he began "ShoutCasting" or being an on air DJ for multiple streaming web radio stations. Also in 2003, TaiwanBrown.com was launched. His personal site was created to keep his frequent readers updated on what site his latest post was on.

Taiwan, overtaken with emotion, chatted with Steven live on-air about Fat Joe's "Lean Back" and then helped introduce the premier of Britany Spears' "My Prerogative."
