I prefer to use this and not the -n variety, so I get DNS-resolved hostnames. Nice when I'm trying to figure out who's got that port open.

try iptraf. lsof -i is a one time deal. real-time would imply that you could see network activity as it happens in a continuous manner. iptraf is a basic utility that lets you do just that.
Thanks - iptraf is pretty effin cool!
To make it keep running until you hit ctrl-c:
lsof -i -rawesome! I also like the output of the slightly longer:
watch "lsof -i"
ugh.. noob alert, it should be:
watch "lsof -i"Same thing using ip address instead of dns hostname
lsof -Pan -i tcp -i udp
