I added and changed a few lines. This will allow the user to put how long ago twitter was updated.

I started at line 141 of the source.

string innerText = "\"" + status["text"].InnerText + "\"" + "<br />" + "<a href='http://twitter.com/" + status["user"]["screen_name"].InnerText + "/statuses/" + status["id"].InnerText + "/'>";

string TwitterTime = status["created_at"].InnerText;
string[] TimeValues = TwitterTime.Split(' ');
TwitterTime = TimeValues[1] + " " + TimeValues[2] + " " + TimeValues[5] + " " + TimeValues[3] + " GMT";
DateTime dt = Convert.ToDateTime(TwitterTime);
innerText += GetRelativeDate(dt);
innerText += "</a>";

// Conversion of url in link
//Regex regex = new Regex(@"http(s)?://([\w-]+\.)+[\w-]+(/[\w- ./?%&=]*)?");
//MatchCollection matches = regex.Matches(innerText);
//foreach (Match match in matches)
//{
// innerText = innerText.Replace(match.Value, string.Format(link, match.Value, match.Value));
//}


/// <summary>
/// gets the relevant time of the current twitter user.
/// </summary>
/// <param name="date"></param>
/// <returns></returns>
private String GetRelativeDate(DateTime date)
{
DateTime now = DateTime.Now;
TimeSpan span = now - date;
if (span <= TimeSpan.FromSeconds(60))
{
return span.Seconds + " seconds ago";
}
else if (span <= TimeSpan.FromMinutes(60))
{
if (span.Minutes > 1)
{
return "about " + span.Minutes + " minutes ago";
}
else
{
return "about a minute ago";
}
}
else if (span <= TimeSpan.FromHours(24))
{
if (span.Hours > 1)
{
return "about " + span.Hours + " hours ago";
}
else
{
return "about an hour ago";
}
}
else
{
if (span.Days > 1)
{
return "about " + span.Days + "days ago";
}
else
{
return "about a day ago";
}
}
}
