Implications - When something extends beyond its original purpose, its probability of becoming iconic is heightened. Post-its are a great example, as they have transcended their purpose of simple office stationary and crossed over to art medium, fashionable fabric and much more. This is an example of brand hijacking, which involves a consumer group using a product in a way it wasn't intended to be used and thus, bringing it to viral success.
