PNG is very similar to GIF, but it uses a different compression algorithm and can't be animated (yet, I hear rumors that they are working on that...)

The PNG equivalent of Animated GIFs are MNGs (Multiple-image Network Graphics.) As implied by the name, MNG was based on the PNG format to handle animated graphics. In addition to sharing a number of PNG's best features, it offers the following animation features:

But MNGs are currently still in development and very few programs support it as of yet (the only program that springs to my mind is Netscape 6).
