Curious about what your browser is really doing when you visit a site? You can open the Network activity window when using OmniWeb (under Tools) but they fly by pretty fast. No problem. Open a terminal window (Applications:Utilities:Terminal) and type in the following:
while 1
netstat | grep tcp
echo "-------"
sleep 5
end
What this does is look at network activity (netstat), filter it so we see only web stuff (grep tcp), print a divider, then sleep for five seconds before doing it all again. Now as you visit a web site you'll see that there are probably lots of extra calls to akamai (web caching service), ad servers, and maybe even a few surprising ones. Oh, type Control-C to stop it.
This morning I crawled into the G4 and started snapping shots...
