    Abstract: A method of synchronizing the display of instant messages between multiple clients is performed at a computer system. Upon receipt of a first synchronization request from a client, the first synchronization request including a conversation identifier and a last message timestamp, the computer system identifies a conversation including a set of messages associated with the conversation identifier. The set of messages was generated after the last message timestamp and have not been received by the client. The computer system then assigns display parameters to the set of messages based on their read-or-not indicators, content, and their temporal relationship with other messages in the conversation. Next, the computer system sends the set of messages and their respective display parameters to the client in a reverse chronological order. The client then displays the set of messages in accordance with their respective display parameters.
