You can search google for an existing function.
Basically, this is done using if statements then formatting the time.

Use timecodes (number of seconds)

$timenow - $timethen = $timeago;

Then see how "big" $timeago is.

If it's less than 30*60 (30 minutes), then round to nearest minute and display "X minutes ago"
If it's less than (24*60*60)-30 ) (23h30m) then round and display "X hours ago"
Then if not display days (or you can include weeks, months, years, whatever)
