I'm looking for the best practice to let Google know about a vast number of dynamically created content.
Let's say (I mean - dream) that I'm Facebook, and I want to let Google to index all the users' posts.


Sitemap.xml may be the answer for this but they are limited to 50,000 URLs in each site map. I know that I can create 500 sitemaps and create a sitemap for sitemaps, but they are also limited, 25,000,000 URLS sounds quite enough at the moment, but could cause problems in the future. I.E - Stack Overflow already has 3 Million posts, probably sitemap is not the solution for them.
Creating a page with paging, and links to all the dynamic data. i guess this is what Stack Overflow did by creating this page here: stackoverflow.com/questions

So I think that Option 2 is the answer, but it seems to me that sitemaps might have some added value. So what should I do?

Both options are what you should be striving for. You want to make it easy for your users and search engines to find your content. As for the XML sitemap, if your goal is to become as large as Facebook then you better be prepared to deal with things on a large scale and that includes sitemaps.
