I know I'm overreplying to stuff you're saying, so I apologize for adding noise to your threads, but how did you guys all coordinate the hacker house? And how has that worked out for you guys, versus the people who've looked for apartments, both financially and socially?
John and I organized Hacker House. It was a little nerve racking as the rent was $4.5k split between us. Thankfully, the place filled up quickly. There's 4.5 rooms and 9 people sleeping here tonight. It's a little cheaper than a regular place (we're paying $500-$900 per person).
Socially: I love it. There's almost always someone coding in the main area, 24hrs / day. Also, there's always someone to go to University Ave with and grab something to eat.
We're actually moving the place up to SF in May. If anyone's interested, send me an email: sam / at / odio / dot / com.
