Again, thanks for your feedback over the last two months. My last update was in July. Since then, I've been setting sail on my research topic journey over the vast oceans of 'online communities', 'social media' and 'innovation'. It looks like I'm settling on innovation and collaboration.

I've just uploaded my latest lit review. The work was supposedly to discuss the essential elements of positivist and interpretive approaches and highlighting their differences. My discipline is in marketing so the selective papers are picked from the marketing area. Please continue to send my your comments.

LIKE ANYTHING, IT IS A SKILL AND TAKES TIME TO GRASP. I PREFER WRITING THE FIRST DRAFT ON COMPUTER AND THEN REVIEW IT ON PAPER AND KEEP THE PROCESS GOING FOR AS MANY TIMES AS YOU LIKE UNTIL YOU'RE SATISFIED!
