If your time is valuable, and you're both looking to have a more substantial "real" date, why waste it on someone you should have screened on a pre-date.
1-Even before the pre-date, exchange a few words first either by phone, IM, or e-mail so when you meet, at least you're not perfect strangers.
2-Don't overdo it online. It may increase frustration and waste time.
3-When you meet, choose a fun place, where they have a busy happy hour after work.
4-Keep it short and simple, just good conversation. It's getting to know you time.
5-If it really goes well and you both choose to spend more time together, try a simple activity. Go for a walk, check local listings for a art show or festival. Be creative. Look for a different venue so you can get to know each other better.

I feel that IM and email have taken the real conversation of of dating.
Number 4 says keep it short and simple. It's really used as an ice breaker for strangers and not meant to take quality conversation away from the date. It's a good test for busy people to see if the date is worthwhile.
