    Are you up for developing something in PHP and jQuery? It should’t be too hard to add a button that would do an AJAX submit to add

    How many total followers do you except anyone to have on your site. If the number is less than 1000 you might get away with just storing a comma separated list of user_id fields in a wp_usermetavalue, or you could add one record in each wp_usermeta record per follower.

    All in all, not a super big project?
