My wife says I shouldn't give advise like this but I will anyways (she doesn't read hackernews). I would keep it simple and ask her to go somewhere non-datish, like starbucks and get her an email. If you want to give a reason it could even to be to continue a topic of conversation you have started.. You should be thinking about making her your friend and working up to dating. This is an easier transition. Everyone needs friends and friends that are girls have many more friends that are girls; so it increases the possibility of other relationships if there is no mutual connection.
