The main difference for me is in the improved stability of my phone (fewer lockups and reboots) faster scrolling between screens, etc. Aesthetics-wise, they're pretty much the same except the 3G icon and bars turn green or blue in Gingerbread when you're fully connected and are white when you're connected, but not to Google. Also, there are three customizable shortcuts at the bottom of the screen.

I charge forward recklessly, leaving chaos in my wake.

How major are the differences between 2.2 and 2.3? Are they noticeable with day to day use?
There is a noticeable number of new features introduced in Android 2.3 (Gingerbread), that include new UI themes, redesigned keyboards, new copy and paste functionality, improved power management, better application management, new download manager, NFC (Near Field Communication), support for VoIP/SIP calls, new Camera application for accessing multiple cameras and supports extra large screens.
