Messages start from a new line; a user's nickname is specified once if a person sends a couple of messages in a row. The message background displayed differently to distinguish own messages. If you point the cursor on the message, it highlights it.

Date/time timestamps shown on the right (only hours and minutes). The day the message is sent displayed on the right also (opposite to the person's name). If you point the cursor on the stamp, the hint shows full information — who sent messages and when (accurate to seconds):
