Hi,

I'm in the dark. There are so many pasta types, alla Carbonara, alla
Bolognese, etc. Does anybody know of a site that explains each one?

Thanks.

What you mentioned are not types of Pasta those are recipes and fairly regional
in nature.

Here is a good primer:

Also look at the pasta maker sites like:

Those are dishes, not pasta types. For pasta types (and for just about
anything else you need food-wise), go he

Plus...

I googled on pasta + names and got to one site:

http://tn.essortment.com/pastatypes_pnk.htm

Which basically put an end to the possibility of answering the OP's
question.

Pastas or sauces? The alla carbonara involves bacon and a raw egg, I
think. Bolognese is what lots of us grew up eating - red sauce with
ground meat in it. Google on pasta -- or use the Google Image feature
for pics of them. Or try the epicurious.com dictionary.
