it is used to let the search engine robots/crawler know that you created/updated the sitemap and they will download and replace the existing sitemap in their database.

more ping options:

Yahoo: see--> Site Explorer Documentation for Yahoo! Search Web Services

MSN Live Search: see--> Live Search Webmaster Center Blog : Microsoft to Support Cross-Domain Sitemaps

ya sure,

you need to download the sitemap generator plugin from wordpress.org, generate a sitemap like http://blog.icalvyn.com/sitemap.xml

once you have this
go to google webmastertools submit the sitemap, and wait for google come to crawl your website.

actually using the blogspot you also can submit the site map to google webmaster tools, but just a bit of research you have to do on it. I did it, but i lost the web that i refer too...

hope that i can get it back and share with you all here

I'm not convinced by the sitemap rhetoric at all. Like I've posted elsewhere on this site, I can see the Googlebot checking a sitemap, then fetching some URLs that are obviously acquired from previously retrieved pages, not the ones in the sitemap. I'm wondering if it's some interaction between the lastmods in the sitemap and the If-Modified-Since behaviour of dynamically generated pages?

It seems like they only help Google - maybe - , not change the way it crawls your site. There's a bit more info here:

What is a Sitemap file and why should I have one?

patient, sitemap is not magic, it need some time to let google crawl your blog.
