The output brianwc using Hadoop is not a file, instead it's a directory. Could u give some explanations?

brianwc is a directory if you're using HDFS, and is a file if you're using the local filesystem. The reason it's a directory in the former case is because multiple result files go in there, one per reducer.
I have been using Ubuntu from quite couple of months now and I have been searching ways to improve my Operating system and found this information. Thanks for sharing this.
