Here's an article by Keith Devlin, about whether transfinite numbers will ever have any practical application.

Devlin writes a monthly column for the MAA (Mathematical Association of America) called Devlin's Angle. More of his columns can be found here.

Speaking of the MAA, their annual meeting, MathFest, will be held in Hartford, CT from July 31 - Aug 3. I encourage all math majors to join the MAA and attend the meeting.
