    Standard XML sitemaps like you linked there works on all major search engines. No differences :)

    1-> Go to MSN, Google webmaster tool and you will find a link to download a code for verification
    2-> Upload the code into the public html root folder by login to FTP or cPanel
    3-> one click you're verified, now simply put the XML file that you have done with to your site/blog(there are easy plugin, if you havent done yet like xml sitemap)
    4-> submit the approriate url of the sitemap to webmaster tools where you want to submit and you're done with the submission.
    Sorry, I don't submit it to Yahoo, i hate their API codes system. But above is how you can done.
    Hope it's gonna help you.
    PM me for more help.

    * Google uses Xml format for all url where Yahoo uses Txt format for all urls.
    * Xml is the format for submitting sitemaps to Google. Txt is the format for submitting urllist/sitemap to Yahoo.

    There is NO DIFFERENCE between standard "Google sitemap", "Yahoo sitemap" and "XML sitemap". They are all the exact same format... Read this sitemaps article if unsure.
