Visual Programming tools that can be used for practical app development

I've been interested in Visual Programming Languages (VPL) for a while. However I've hardly seen any environments that can be used for practical projects such as Windows apps or web services.

I've heard of the following:

Are there any other VPL environments that generate executable programs and can be used for practical applications?

+1  A: 

I don't know if it is practical enough for you but you can have a look at Thyrd, which was recently featured in the last Emerging Languages conference:

It is not just yet another visual stuff, there is really something there
