electro was originally 80's electronic music crossed with early hip hop...main example being africa bambaataa. it basically started when africa bambaataa stole a kraftwerk lick, put a hip hop break beat on top of it with the use of a roland 808, and had the soul sonic force rap over it. that was planet rock.
techno was originally from detroit, from house music but less about recontextualizing 70's rnb/soul/funk with drum machines and more about straight electronic music. pioneered by derrick may, something saunders, and some other guy i cant remember lol
now, electro is more like house music, except extremely electronic (where house music is basically post-disco electronic music that tends to sample heavily from 70's funk/soul/rnb)....lots of squelchy basslines. google benny benassi.
and to ninja savant: ill be on one of the love parade floats this year ;p
