The basic ingredients would probably be:
1) The user interface. Need to be able to read and post messages.
2) A web service interface for retrieving messages to display in the UI.
3) A database (SQL Express?) for storing all the posts.
As the user navigates through the UI, you would call the web services to get (or save, in the case of posting a comment) the data the user is asking for.
If you want it to update in "real time", rather than the user having to hit a 'get new stuff' thingy..it's a bit harder. You would usually do that by polling the server from the SL app, but you can do more sophisticated things (like long running web service calls).
