Yes, size and quality. TIFF is better, but bigger. JPEG is lesser quality, but smaller.
The purpose of JPEG is smaller file size. The data that is removed in order to reduce the file size is basically the redundant information that will have a minimal effect on quality, but there is a limit.
You choose how much loss of information you're willing to tolerate when you convert to JPEG. You would want to take your photos in TIFF and save in TIFF format for retention of the most information; you can make JPEGs from your master TIFF file.

Tiff are not compressed (at least not with a loss of details) - jpeg are compressed with an algorithm which looses details of the picture -- however for normal use there are no noticeable difference

Hello redrobin,
Yes, it's important that if you do any altering work in Adobe Photoshop, that you try to work in TIFF rather than JPEG format. With each update of a JPEG format, you lose a little more detail.

tiffs are uncompressed files and yield greater quality when printed.

the format.... the JPEGs are better quality and they accepted when you want to upload pictures to websites, slideshows, or to share with friends.
