What's the difference between will and shall?

I think shall is stronger. you say something you "will" do is something that is going to happen in the future, but you're not saying that you're going to try to do it, really, just that it's going to happen. but shall implies some sort of effort. maybe? i never use "shall", it just seems stronger to me.
