Find Information Fast
Sort the International table by Languages and filter by 'Asia West'. Now you can easily compare all Arabic speaking countries in the middle east by population, income, or percentage of Muslims, for example. To find this compact information in an almanac would cost you hours. Or filter for 'EU' and sort by and compare population, area, or purchasing power per capita. You learn to differentiate between countries in a specific area and understand connections. An almanac doesn't reveal such general perspectives, 12-Lookup does. You'll find yourself using it every day to verify numbers, look things up, or learn something new.
Find Important Data
12-Lookup was designed to be useful in almost all situations. For that to accomplish it had to provide a large pile of information to be interesting, but not too many information to be confusing. If you want to drive a nail into a wall you don't want to use a sledgehammer. 12-Lookup contains many important data, and only important data, about our world. 'Enough but reasonable' is its major strength. So you will find the numbers and data you need in less time than you would need when searching in a book or on the Internet. The interesting facts provided are going to make you curious to learn more about history and geography. 12-Lookup has an inherent educational value and is fun to use! |
