To me, 
"different from" is closer to "dissimilar" 
and corresponds to the question "What are the difference between…" 
whereas "different than" is closer to "unequal".  
In other words, a swan is different from a goose 
but the height of Mount Everest 
is different than the height of Mont Blanc.
(Note, however, 
that 0 is different from 3: adding 0 does not change the result, etc.)
