What makes the standard basis easy to use is that the vectors are mutually orthogonal and are all unit vectors.

If we want to find an orthonormal basis we just divide each of these vectors by their magnitudes.

For the process to succeed in producing an orthonormal set, the given vectors must be linearly independent.
The result is an orthonormal basis, so the dot product of each pair of vectors is zero and each vector has unit length.

In fact, there is a far-reaching generalization of this representation, which gives an analogous representation with respect to what we could loosely call a continuously indexed orthonormal basis of a Hilbert space.
In mathematical terms, such continuous orthonormal bases are referred to as diagonalizations, because mathematically they correspond to representing certain commutative algebras of operators as algebras of multiplication operators.
The technical details of how this diagonalization is carried out is beyond the scope of this article, but it generalizes the result of linear algebra that a commutative algebra of operators closed under operator adjoint is diagonalized in some orthonormal basis.

 Gamasutra - Features "C++ Data Structures for Rigid-Body Physics" [07.02.99]
Storing orientation as an orthonormal basis (three mutually orthogonal unit vectors in the form of a 3x3 matrix) uses nine scalars and is less convenient for interpolating orientation; however, it is much more efficient for transforming vectors to and from a local coordinate frame.
Because of collision detection this seems to be what the orientation is most frequently used for, so I prefer using an orthonormal basis (see Listing 3).
The conversion from a basis to a quaternion is not terribly expensive and can be done if interpolation is necessary.

Abstract: The decomposing description of linear time-invariant infinite-dimensional dynamics in terms of an orthonormal basis is an important part of modern Systems Theory and has a long history in modelling and identification of dynamical systems dating back to the classical work of Lee [19] and Wiener [36].

 Quantum Mechanics
In classical theories, a set of quantities which forms a supervenience basis for the rest is typically designated as ‘basic’ or ‘fundamental’, and, since any mathematically possible way of combining their values is a physical possibility, the state-space can be obtained by simply taking these as coordinates.
So, for instance, the state-space of a classical mechanical system composed of n particles, obtained by specifying the values of 6n real-valued quantities — three components of position, and three of momentum for each particle in the system — is a 6n-dimensional coordinate space.
Different operators can have different eigenvectors, but the eigenvector/operator relation depends only on the operator and vectors in question, and not on the particular basis in which they are expressed; the eigenvector/operator relation is, that is to say, invariant under change of basis.
