People use it mainly to be able to work uninterrupted.

There is however a way to find out if your Yahoo contact or buddy is really offline or only faking that he is offline. It basically lets you detect if they use the invisible mode in Yahoo Messenger.

The easiest way is to use a script like that offered by Xeeber. Just enter the Yahoo ID of your contact or buddy and wait for the script to display the result. You will find out if he is using the invisible mode or really offline.
