 {{{
 Most notably that doesn't prevent the client from IMing you
 }}}

 This is the whole point of invisibility. It allows IMs to be sent while
 being "offline." Since google talk implements offline messages, messages
 sent while a user is offline are not rejected either, so this doesn't
 allow too much information to be found. As for resources, I'd like to note
 that the AIM client features are displayed if an invisible "offline"
 contact is examined. By the way, how does google talk's shared status
 system work?
