Comparing Spring & Guice

Spring has been dominating the Inversion of Control (IoC) world for a long time now, and its buzz factor is well deserved. Spring has a great IoC container and also provides many services over and above what you'd expect from an IoC container. Recently however a new player has been getting a lot of attention.
