When you get on the main twitter page you are offered a list of shortcut keys.
I think if you don't see the msg the help is called with the questioinmakr, "?".

I agree, but honestly, even after many sessions of use fine corebird less than intuitive, and a bit 
inefficient to use. 
I hope that someone ports the latest incarnation of the old qwitter to linux as they said they would do a 
coupolle of years ago...lol...Hopefully the 
memory consumption has been cut a bit.

Many of us use ttytter or the updated fork, oysttyer either in a terminal or in a console. 
These days I find these the best way to do a lot of tweeting and reading of tweets, and almost if not all 
twitter core functionality can be handled by 
it. Shareaholic is also something I use with twitter, and not as vercitile, but for basic stuff slightly 
easier than oysttyer is the bitlbee twitter 
functionality. 

I do agree that corebird-gtk is the best currently available GUI twitter client, but for Ubuntu users it must 
be made from source as far as I know, at 
least for trusty. Is there a ppa with .debs for corebird?
