@mmiicc : Gwibber is not really a chat application, and if you check the
microblogs/social networks, all of them show the latest messages on top,
and above all there is the message entry box.

Title:
  position of message entry textbox

Status in Gwibber:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Much as I hate to suggest something that might end up becoming more
  preference detritus, here's a thought...

  Given that the message list is reverse chronological, and the main
  portion of the user interface is at the top of the gwibber window,
  perhaps the message entry textbox should be located at the top of the
  window instead?

  Though I think that's an entirely sensible default, I realise that
  some people might object, and as much as I don't want to suggest
  adding a preference, it might be relevant in the preferences
  dialogue... "[ ] show message entry at bottom" (because I think the
  top is the right default, but you may think otherwise).

  Thanks! :-)
