I currently live in Harlem and am thinking of moving. I see alot of these websites but I'm hoping someone can share their experiences with these roommate websites or iphone apps and let me know which ones they recommend. Thanks.

Try The Listings Project. It's mainly geared towards artists and others in creative fields with a large section devoted to studio rental spaces, but it also has a good number of roommate situations advertised.

I'd start with Craigslist, just because it's so widely used. If you went to a school with an alumni organization, check through that.

It's not so important where you look. The important thing is how you look. Spend a good chunk of time with the person before signing on, at least an hour, preferably two. Ask the person out for coffee. Be alert to all the nuances, not only what's said, but what isn't said. And make sure you have a written agreement.
