I would have to say the opposite is true.
It's text based interfaces that have stood the test of time, and now even flourish in HTTP. We have more widely used text based interfaces than ever before where REST,HTML, XML and JSON seem to rule most machine-machine communication.
Strongly typed binary RPC such as DCOM and CORBA however are now nearly gone.
