also I hand code things, but I use eclipse with specific editors for html 
and the language I use, because I like very much the code assist feature.
In this way I can write in more languages, the curve of learning for a new 
language becomes smaller and I can code in what ever language the customer 
wants.
To stick to one technology is limititative and very unmotivating.
In my work I choose the technology after I see the requirements and I choose 
it according to the requirements.
Also I have made projects with a mixture of technologies and languages.
As an ide I use mostly eclipse.
