Other than the title and size of the document, none really. One is provided by a testing center and doled out by the state (GED) and the other by a school (diploma). The GED is objective (involves only testing and multiple guessing); whereas, the diploma is subjective grading (based on how closely a student's thought process is to a teacher's).
Which one is better? Depends on the person. If you feel you're wasting your time sitting in a class when you could challenge it or know you can pass it, take the GED and get a jump in the job market or head start in college. If you are the type who has to have interaction with others to learn, then stay in school and get the diploma.
