Can we trick Google Talk? Can we show idle status and be active at the same time?The best way to keep unwanted friends away is to be invisible or keeping our status idle.Google talk has no provision of invisible status(however you can always choose invisible status in gmail embedded chat) Idle status in gtalk means you aren’t using the feature for last 15 minutes.Being idle is more advantageous than it may seem. You can always make excuses to your colleagues. Didn’t you saw the idle status – I was having lunch, I was watching movie, – I was not in my chair, – My brother was playing some stupid game etc. So far as many people know, you can’t make your status idle. Its an automatic update which ticks after 15 minutes of inactivity. gAlwaysIdle is a small application which gets integrated with gtalk and forcibly sets your status to idle.

gAlwaysIdle is solution for your dilemma. Now chat with whom you initiate and remain idle to all others.
