It looks like in addition to Twitter you are now able to add a Telecom New Zealand number to your Facebook profile.

After confirmation you are able to receive notifications, set schedules, select specific friends or pages to monitor for updates, and more.

I am trying to find out about the costs involved. It appears Telecom will send out a press release about this later this week - so you heard here first...
