for one they do different things, partuza is a site (container as we call
it), while shindig is the gadget & opensocial specification implementation
(so it renders gadgets, provides a social interface for it, etc).

The reason why all the guides suggest setting up 2 different virtual hosts
is because it's the basis of the security model ... because the gadget is
running on a different domain then the container (the website that
'contains' the app), the gadget can't read / modify / do anything nasty to
the social site (like adding spam messages, stealing your cookies,
whatever). So it's kind of a big deal to have them on different domains :)
