CloudBlobContainer CreateIfNotExistsAsync vs. CreateIfNotExists

Can anyone explain the difference between the CreateIfNotExists and CreateIfNotExistsAsync methods of the CloudBlobContainer in Windows Azure? The MSDN documentation just says that the CreateIfNotExistsAsync method

Returns a task that creates the container if it does not already exist.

And for CreateIfnotExists

Creates the container if it does not already exist.

So I don't really understand the difference between them.

Essentially both of the operations are doing the same thing i.e. creating a blob container if it does not exist. The difference is that one is doing asynchronously (CreateIfNotExistsAsync) and the other synchronously (CreateIfNotExists).
