Abstract

A novel system and method for collecting, transmitting and delivering consumer product-related information on the Internet. The system includes Internet Servers which store information pertaining to Universal Product Number (e.g. UPC number) preassigned to each product registered in the system, with Uniform Resource Locators (URLs) that point to the location of one or more information resources on the Internet, e.g. World Wide Web-sites, related to such products. Each client computer system includes an Internet browser or Internet application tool which is provided with an Internet Product Information (IPI) Find button and an Universal Product Number (UPN) Search Button. The system enters its 'IPI Find Mode' when the 'IPI Find' button is selected and enters the 'UPN Search Mode' when the 'UPN Search' Button is selected. When the system is in its IPI Find Mode, a predesignated information resource (e.g. advertisement, product information, warranty and servicing, etc.) pertaining to any commercial product registered with the system is automatically accessed from the Internet and displayed from the Internet browser by simply entering the registered product's UPN into the Internet browser. When the system is in its 'UPN Search Mode', a predesignated information resource pertaining to any commercial product registered with the system is automatically accessed from the Internet and displayed from the Internet browser by simply entering the registered product's trademark(s) and/or associated company name into the Internet browser.
