Network sniffing with tcpflow

Answer:

Wireshark is the De facto standard in network sniffing, but most of the time you might just want to analyse the content passing through your web browser or web server, then it is easy with tcpflow

For example, to show your communication with google.com to console, you can use

sudo tcpflow -c -i en0 src or dst host www.google.com
