Big, Good things. Amazon S3 and Google Maps API are the only real ones that come to mind. You couldn't do either of those better if you tried.
It's the Big, mostly good things that are the most dangerous. Off the shelf Content Management Systems come to mind as the obvious example. They'll get you close fast, then morph into a soul-draining time sink as you try to get that last 5%. You'll know early on that you're on the wrong path, but it will likely be six months of torture and waste before you actually scrap it and build your own.
