This may sound kinda stupid, but when people ask you to send them an e-mail in a social setting, what are you expected to actually send? I've had a few times when there are people I've met who use the "send me an e-mail" line, but I never find something worth actually sending an e-mail about, and thus never get around to it.

i write "hello - we met @ <wherever> - my contact info is ______ - let's grab a coffee when you're free"

i add more if there was something more specific/interesting that we chatted about.

Hi,

Just dropping by to say hello. How are things going?

Regards,
