On Facebook, Brownie shared its life on the third day of unemployment, visiting the Japan-Star Foundry—the only lead-type printing shop in Taiwan—where it interacted playfully with owner Mr. Chang Chieh-kuann and learned about typecasting. This also triggered a strong online response and quickly amplified the visibility of the attraction.

Brownie also posted about going to an employment service center to look for a job. In addition to promoting tourism, this also served to highlight municipal services and government initiatives. It drew a response from Taipei City Labor Bureau Director Lai Hsiang-ling in the comments, adding humor and drawing more attention.
