Accepted Answer

Google's own sample code appears to be invalid. According to the documentation Google Data type/kind gd:im requires the property address to be populated.

@address

@label?

@rel?

@protocol?

@primary?

Conventions:

elementName Required element

elementName ? Optional element

elementName ***** Optional element, multiple instances allowed

You'll need to update a part of the code like:

```
newEntry.IMs.Add(new IMAddress()
{
  Address = "email@dot.com",  // untested
  Primary = true,
  Rel = ContactsRelationships.IsHome,
  Protocol = ContactsProtocols.IsGoogleTalk,
});
```
