New Adwords Location Targeting Tool Sucks Ass

I run a lot of campaigns geo-targeting many different countries. A few month's Google decided to revamp the location targeting options in Adwords, as well as in the Adwords traffic estimator tool.

Somebody at Google though it's easier for people to simply just enter countries instead of having the ability to select certain regions/sections of the world like before. I, like many other loved the ability to select certain regions/sections/areas of the world like before, it was easy and fun to see where clusters of keywords have different traffic.

Now whenever you want to geo-target a specific country on a campaign or lookup traffic for whatever keyword you ONLY have the ability to just simply enter the country. Excuse me but how am I suppose to evaluate certain keywords that get different traffic in certain regions around the world like I am used to, like helloo, can this be any harder now? Do they really expect me to enter in every country 1 by 1 to see how much worldwide traffic a given keyword has. umm no thanks.

Thank god i have certain campaigns built already with the geo-location targets already built in that I can just clone easily in adwords editor.

But cmon google, you didnt just mess up the location tool, you screwed it up royally and made it harder for folks who do a lot of geo-targeting. i thought the tool should be easy to use, not hard. this is seriously taking a major step back here.

and now when i run the traffic estimator tool, i cant select certain regions to see what kind of traffic i can get, are you freakin kidding me? what the hell is going on? now what am i supposed to do enter it 1 by 1? LOL what the hell.

what will i do now to see which keywords get the most traffic in certain regions of the world?
