Crosstxt does the same thing, but it's in closed beta.

EDIT: Sticking with crosstxt. It alerts you when you get new messages, has a chrome extension to give you desktop alerts when you get new messages, and doesn't force close. It also lets you control your information, you can delete messages/contact information off their servers.
