the spectrum and range of grays is much wider. color images that are printed in b&w tend to be flatter, and higher contrast.
the rule of thumb is that you shoot with b&w film if you want to print b&w. and color film for color prints.
using color film for b&w printing is a trick that can get you out of a bind, but should never be used all the time.
at least this is what it is for fine art photography. as for simple point and shoot photos with friends, then do whatever you want... you're not going to frame them in large format anyway.
