A good web page on these topics is

http://www.ii.com/math/ch/

Section 3.1.1 there discusses 2^aleph-null and C. Towards the end it
has some interesting quotes from mathematicians about the Continuum
Hypothesis, whether it is true or false, what it means for it to be
undecideable, etc.

Also interesting is

http://www.ii.com/math/ch/confusion/

which discusses some of the misinformation floating around about the
Continuum Hypothesis, which has led to some of the confusion in our
discussion here.
