1. UPCcode: http://www.upcdatabase.com/ which was quite obvious
(no, I don't know how good it is)
2. Barcodereader -> PHP
write a cli app where your barcode reader is the keyboard
(readline is the hint)
3. search your UPC in the database from 1.
and put it in your database
4. ready (and much faster than viewing 4010884529654 - oh this is a EAN
which isn't listed in UPC ;-) )
5. What was your PHP related question again?
