Google Sitemaps - By Hand Or Using Generators?

I was wondering, those of you that utilize Google Sitemaps on your websites, how do you generate them?

Are you manually creating the files or using some kind of sitemap generator to create them for you?

Are talking for blogs specifically or for other .php or .html type sites?

Any type of site really Bec.

Im actually just getting around to adding sitemaps to a bunch of sites ive actually been meaning to add them to for a few months and im wondering if by hand is easier/better or not?

For blogs I just submit the Atom feeds. Works great.

Two best friends for any webmaster:

Google Webmaster Tools

Since I only have blogs, I use the Google XML Sitemaps plugin with much success.

As for a good sitemap generator for regular sites? I have no idea...
