You're putting yourself in the position of the lessor of the two which signals to the girl that you think she is above you and as such she might want to reconsider her original conclusion that you were worth pursuing.
Attraction is not built by reminding a girl of your existence. You are much better off letting her wonder if you'll ever contact her. The possibility of loss will build attraction.
That is not necessarily the case. You don't need to do anything special, just the odd, 'Hey hows it going?'. I don't see that as any extra effort/desperate. It's just friendly. Just because you are contacting her does not make you the lesser person, it means she is busy and you like her.
After one date I don't think the possibility of loss is going to keep her awake at night. There is nothing there at the moment, so you need to force it a little otherwise she will disappear.
As wsopmichael said (even though you are disagreeing with me, you kinda agreed with me), 'If you wait for her to contact you, she probably won't'. So you have very little to lose seeing as she probably won't get back to you. If a girl is worth the effort then I say go for it.
