Sammendrag	Longitudinal netnography applies the systematic, immersive online ethnographic method developed by Kozinets across multiple time points to reveal how digital communities, cultural practices, and shared meanings evolve. Rather than offering a snapshot of online life, it tracks the same community or platform over weeks, months, or years, capturing change, continuity, and the temporal rhythms of internet culture.	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.
