Subject: How to write apps dependent on external libraries?

Often I see apps which are dependent on this .so file or that. I don't know 
how apps can be written that depend on libraries that are not linked into the 
executable. So far I have been linking all needed libraries into the 
executable.

A .so is a collection of what? An .a is a collection of .o-s, right? What is 
a .la? I am so very confused.

I don't know what keywords to search for on Google. Which is why I ask here. 
If it is a detailed subject please give me keywords so I can search and find 
on my own.

Thanks for your help.
