The increasing amount of digital multimedia content available is inspiring potential new types of user interaction with video data. Users want to easily find the content by searching and browsing. For this reason, techniques are needed that allow automatic categorisation, searching the content and linking to related information. In this work, we present a dataset that contains comprehensive semi-professional user-generated (SPUG) content, including audiovisual content, user-contributed metadata, automatic speech recognition transcripts, automatic shot boundary files, and social information for multiple `social levels'. We intend this Blip10000 dataset to be a useful resource for evaluating tagging techniques as well as retrieval techniques. We describe the principal characteristics of this dataset and present results that have been achieved on different tasks.
