Retweet Functionality

Hello All,
I am working on a microblogging application.Currently the retweet
feature has not been implemented but I would like to include it in the
future release.I would like to know how best could this be implemented
using Ruby on Rails and what could be the possible database structure
for the same.

It would also be great if anyone could post a site where I can get a
detailed idea and the flow of how the retweet functionality actually
works.

Thanks in Advance.
