A more or less brief answer, on a complex topic, belatedly:
1. Another reason I find this self-introduction pointless is that users in their profiles already have the opportunity to introduce themselves. Adding more to that often means adding more interests, i.e., strengthening the overall tendency that micro-blogging is about *content* when it rather is about *people*. The reification of personhood is thus increased, not dimishied.
