You could achieve this with Twitter years ago. Twitter will accept "tweets" from your mobile via sms - It's an international SMS so your solution may be cheaper if you're using a local destination number.
So with the Twitter solution what you once your sms's are becoming tweets is link your Facebook status to your twitter tweets and you're "social-networking" on two platforms, not just one, via SMS. What would be great is a service where you can select one or two key Facebook or Twitter contacts and have their status sms'ed to you phone - This is something that Twitter already doesn't but isn't available on Etisalat / Du. Thanks for the app' though ...
