Don't have to make the whole house out of obsidian, just some important walls.
Like the wall of paintings that took ages to get the perfect arrangement.
After mining the ones already there I found another bunch of obsidian with 200+ blocks, it will take me ages to mine, any hints for making the mining easier.
P.S there is lava underneath most of the blocks.

Protip 1: Casting obsisdian with a mold is much faster then mining it if you got tons of buckets and the source is relatively close to the place you wish to build. (i know it's far underground, but you can travel for quite a while before it gets close to the time required to actualy mine obsidian)
Protip 2: Obsidian really is useless, a glass vault would offer the exact same protection from everything exept creepers and you are the only thing that can sett off creepers. And if you set off a creeper next to your vault you deserve to get it blown up.
Well, be that as it may, the structure of the game defeats the vault's purpose.
If Notch adds land ownership so other people can't destroy your stuff, you don't need obsidian.
If Notch doesn't add land ownership so other people can destroy your stuff, they'll just break down the door.
I'm trying to keep my house hidden so they wouldn't work, thanks for the ideas though.
I might do this if someone can explain it more, no vids though.

I really can't think of any other use.

I did something similar with epic rows of cactus hedges.
It's a lot safer out there when there are large dangerous obstacles you can dash behind.
