Default Types of shocks.....

What's the difference in shock types? From gas to twin tube to mono tube to reservoir or what ever. I want good shocks that will allow a good ride but with most parts now adays there as so many different options.... So can someone please help with the confusion...

I've posted the same question on a few forums, and never really got any real answers. I am subscribing to this thread in hopes someone with some knowledge chimes in.
