I can second Psycrow's advice. In a way, of course, internet dating is a terrible idea if you want to avoid small talk, because that's obviously what it's all about 90% of the time. But sometimes you might meet someone with whom you're able to move to deeper levels of conversation. I've had such positive surprises happen to me a couple of times, and though nothing long-lasting came out of them (except one, with whom I'm very good friends now), mostly because there was no physical chemistry, I still had a very nice evening which left me feeling fulfilled for a while.
