There is no question in my mind that object oriented philosophy is borne from and related to notions of object oriented programming. If we accept that, then it's interesting to see yet another way in which computer programming and code-concepts are permeating our contemporary culture. However, I'm not quite sure I see the point. It looks like they're essentially taking age-old philosophical concepts and considerations and putting them in a new wrapper. If nothing else then perhaps it will make it easier for programmers to understand some philosophical concepts.
