[NBLUG/talk] The Linux "invisible" files

When I create a directory within the "home" directory that gets used by 
Samba and FTP, there are quite a few "." files or Linux "invisible" 
files.  Is there documentation on the meaning of each of these?

Also, when I go to a site managed by an ISP, I again notice quite a few 
"." dot files.  Is there a standard applied here?
