The term died, the dream festered on. It got rebranded as model driven development andany in the embedded world bought into it in the late 90s, some have only ditched it in the last year or two, while plenty more have followed a second rebranding and keep drawing... There are some good graphical languages, lego mind storm, code spells, gnu radio companion, simulink, and maybe, sometimes, labview. Those languages aren't object oriented, they represent data flow. I suspect that makes a difference. But mostly they are for quick prototyping or small designs. And that makes an even bigger one. Diagrams don't scale well.
