I find HSRP and GLBP to be similar if you are talking about default
gateway redundancy. However GLBP will always loadbalance the gateways,
HSRP is providing just one gateway and backups for that.
Furthermore, HSRP can be used for much more than default gateway
redundancy. When you need to do stateful switchover of something like
IOS SLB or an IPSec headend (something with a state database), HSRP is
the way to do this.
It all depends on the application of course.
