(KSL News) -- Your 15-minutes of fame could be just a click away. For a spot in the spotlight, you just need a camera, web access and a touch of creativity.

"You Tube" is a free website where people can upload their proudest moments and their wackiest tricks. Founders say they aim to create a stage for everyone to be seen, and it's catching on. Since the site launched in December, it gets more than 30-million hits a day.

Xeni Jardin, Tech Journalist: "Instead of a world that's driven by hits that take a lot of money and a lot of production, that kid in the backyard with a football and a poor quality digital video camera can create something that's hugely entertaining for a huge number of people."
