File System Descriptions

[Odhiambo Washington]

Dear people,

Does anyone know of a place where they describe the differences between
the commonly known filesystem types - UFS, UFS2, NTFS, EXT2, EXT3,
REISERFS, FAT32 (spit!) .. well, mostly the ones related to Unix I hope.
I would like to know why one type is preferred over the others, or
something like that.

Thank you in advance for all the answers, and even flames!
