সারসংক্ষেপ	Digital autoethnography is a qualitative research design in which the researcher systematically examines their own lived experience within digital environments — social media platforms, online communities, gaming worlds, digital workplaces, or other networked spaces — to illuminate broader cultural and social phenomena. Combining autoethnography's first-person reflexivity with the study of digital life, it treats personal digital traces, interactions, and self-representations as primary data.	Autoethnography is a qualitative research method in which the researcher uses systematic self-reflection and personal narrative to examine their own experiences within a cultural, social, or organizational context. By treating the self as both subject and instrument, autoethnography connects individual lived experience to broader cultural patterns, making personal stories analytically and socially significant. It bridges autobiography and ethnography, producing accounts that are simultaneously evocative and scholarly.	Netnography is a qualitative research method that adapts the principles of cultural ethnography to the study of online communities and social media environments. Coined by Robert Kozinets in 1997 and systematised in his 2010 handbook, netnography treats digital spaces — forums, social networks, blogs, review sites — as naturally occurring field sites where communities gather, share meanings, and construct identities. The method combines unobtrusive observation of digital traces with active participation and, where appropriate, direct member interaction.
