Yahoo’s Project Runway event today brought out a major push towards tablets with two new creations. On top of its HTML5 mail, the early search firm will have an HTML5-based home portal optimized for tablets. The page is geared towards the iPad but will give any suitably equipped tablet large, touchscreen-friendly views of highlighted articles as well as usual information like stocks and weather.
Also coming is a native iPad alarm clock app. The title should go beyond its core functions to include a basic calendar, weather, search and other Yahoo-related tasks.
Yahoo hasn’t put a timetable on when either the website or the app will arrive, though it’s implied both are due soon.
