Text cloud like Steve Jobs in Keynote?

[Patrick J]

Incomprehensible title.

I want to make this:

Is there any tool to align all the ideas up, around the central icon? Any template available?

1-Text Wrap?
2 - If not try to draw a shape and put the text around it. the text will follow the shape of the object as you type
3 - text box? if you use this, give the texts different sizes and different oppasity (it will give a sense of depth of field)
to make them move or go around, play a bit with the text animation feature

You could try Wordle.

Thanks for all your suggestions.

I will probably do it the manual hard way, and add text boxes and appropriate transparencies.

Wordle is a very interesting site, but it created TAG clouds (ie the most commonly repeated words in a block of text).
