( can you recommend one? ) my main question is, how would you implement such a "feature" using a non-relational DB, e.g. a key/value kind of DB? Obviously, I had like to support the amo...

I think the best way to do this would be through following and direct messages similar to how RTM has chosen to interact with users through Twitter.
