Facebook / Twitter Like Time date Conversion in ASP.NET C# / MVC

Management of date time system in web application is an important task of a website programmer. Facebook and Twitter like website uses special conversion algorithms for time representation and synchronization. On the other hand Programming language like C#, stores date time in there special formats for system uses.  We can use .ToString(<FORMAT>) method for special time-date formatting. You can read more about this on Microsoft Website.

I have create a mehtod/function to obtain behavior of this date-time in c# programming language.
Function Accepts the Date-Time type Parameters and returns the string format of date time for user friendly representations.

Here is implementation in C# Language:

public string TimeFromDateTime(DateTime dt)
        {
           TimeSpan span = DateTime.Now - dt;
           if (dt < DateTime.Now)
           {
               if (span.Days > 365)
               {
                   return dt.ToString("dd MMMM yyyy");
               }
               if (span.Days > 30)
               {
                   return dt.ToString("ddd, dd MMMM yyyy");
                  
               }
               if (span.Days > 0)
               {
                   return dt.ToString("ddd, d MMM h:mm tt");
               }
               if (span.Hours > 0)
               {
                   return String.Format("{0} {1} ago", span.Hours, span.Hours == 1 ? "hr" : "hrs");
               }
               if (span.Minutes > 0)
               {
                   return String.Format("{0} {1} ago", span.Minutes, span.Minutes == 1 ? "min" : "mins");
               }
               if (span.Seconds > 5)
               {
                   return String.Format("{0} sec ago", span.Seconds);
               }
               if (span.Seconds <= 5)
               {
                   return "just now";
               }
           }
           else
           {
               span = dt - DateTime.Now;
               if (span.Days > 365)
               {
                   return "Upcoming " + dt.ToString("dd MMMM yyyy");
               }
               if (span.Days > 30)
               {
                   return "Upcoming "+dt.ToString("dd MMMM yyyy");
               }
               if (span.Days > 0)

                   return String.Format("about {0} {1} from now", span.Days, span.Days == 1 ? "day" : "days");
               if (span.Hours > 0)
                   return String.Format("about {0} {1} from now", span.Hours, span.Hours == 1 ? "hour" : "hours");
               if (span.Minutes > 0)
                   return String.Format("about {0} {1} from now", span.Minutes,
                                        span.Minutes == 1 ? "minute" : "minutes");
               if (span.Seconds > 5)
                   return String.Format("about {0} seconds from now", span.Seconds);
               if (span.Seconds == 0)
                   return "just now";
           }
            return "Unknown Time is Left";
         }
