I would like to arrange a few images and video thumbnail views into a tile like format (like the apps on windows 8 start screen) in a web page. Which tag should i use for this purpose and how to use them?

Generic website structure: <div>

Navigation menu: <ul> / <li>

Menu should be in ULs for easier browsing (using text-based browsers and readers for blind people) as well as google compatibility. Your tiles are nothing extraordinary, just a type of layout, and layout should be made using divs.

(And for a love of god - if you have a tabular data on your website: put it in tables, cause each time someone creates a table out of divs: a cute kitty dies)

The only exception from this are HTML5 websites - out there it's bit more complicated. You have tags like header, nav, figure etc.

For HTML5 layout implementation you should read one of HTML5 coding guides.

Almost all placement of elements on modern web pages is done via the <div> tag and CSS rules.
