"Idle" is someones status that shows up to their friends when they are online. Unlike AIM, you can't just say "I'm away from my keyboard", it will just automatically put you as Idle if you don't click on anything for a certain amount of time. Idle basically means that you are doing nothing.

If your on Facebook and your Idle, you would get the little grey crescent moon next to your name, instead of the green dot.
