Thanks for writing this up. There were good, specific bits of advice in here I hadn't thought of (and I've had lots of roommates).
(Though I do think no matter how common your interests are, the most important part of sharing living space is stuff like respecting other people's moods and stuff, etc)
So, that's it, I'm inspired. I want to start a Hacker House in Portland, OR.
Though I'm a computer person, other people's hacking would not be limited to code. I'd also welcome bike hackers, materials hackers, etc.
Dudes and dudettes (i'm a girl, both boys + girls welcome) in the area should hit me up to talk/wiki-ify any thoughts you have. Am thinking of starting this late summer-ish.
