Much has already been said. A good tool to collect housenumbers on an Android phone is keypadmapper: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/KeypadMapper
I've mostly mapped interpolation lines in my Montreal neighborhood. The problem here is that each apartment has an individual housenumber, meaning that if you have, for example, a triplex you can easily end up with 8 different numbers for just one building, making individual nodes a huge pain. One note about the linked example: If you've mapped all individual houses on a block, I'd delete the interpolation line or add the addr:inclusion tag to provide other mappers with accuracy information: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Addresses#Using_Address_Interpolation_for_partial_surveys Harald.
