It's not a rule for my house that people remove their shoes, but I HATE shoes and they come off at the front door. My kids got it from me. We end up with what my son refers to as "The Shoe Pile" by the door. The poor kid doesn't know what to do if I put them all in his closet. Then he can't find his shoes!
When I'm visiting someone else, it depends. When it's snowy, salty, etc as CanadianTeke said, they always come off. Ditto for rainy. I just don't want to track mud/water/snow/salt into someone's house. I did have a lot of friends who weren't allowed to wear their shoes in the house.

ETA: Then again, I had friends whose living rooms had plastic on the furniture and lamps and they were never allowed to use that room. I never got the point of that either. I use my living room and family room equally... I like having a lot of living space!
