Thanks a lot JD .. That was exacly the kind of info I was looking for Maintaining sitemap looks like the solution for me.
I plan to store my blog content in an xml and not in a database as I want to avoid having a server side component like a Java Servelet or something ... so for now it will be a plain old HTTPService fetching an xml ... if you have any suggestions for such a setup that would help me get better viability for my blog content and hopefully a better PageRanks .. do let me know.
