- CTRL + SHIFT + HYPHEN(-) for navigating forwards
- CTRL + PERIOD(.) shows the smart tag, because almost nobody can hit that small rectangle with the mouse
- CTRL + SHIFT + F, Find in Files. I use this one quite often (mostly for a search in the entire solution); it's very fast and displays all the results in a separate window
On a sidenote: I've created a reference card including most of the VS keyboard shortcuts mentioned in the article and some more (I'm using it at work; looks pretty good printed). Too bad I didn't upload it yet. Looks like I'm going to publish it this evening on my journal.

My favorite keyboard shortcuts:
- CTRL + HYPHEN(-) for navigating backwards
- CTRL + SHIFT + HYPHEN(-) for navigating forwards
- CTRL + PERIOD(.) shows the smart tag, because almost nobody can hit that small rectangle with the mouse
- CTRL + SHIFT + F, Find in Files. I use this one quite often (mostly for a search in the entire solution); it's very fast and displays all the results in a separate window
- SHIFT + F12 (or CTRL + K, R) finds all references
