A messaging method is described in which avatars, representative of attributes of users and individuals, are used for capturing information and/or selecting users or individuals. In one embodiment, an avatar is rendered in response to attributes input by a user, and a matching and retrieval selects records from a database. Avatars are rendered in accordance with the attributes in the records. The user selects an avatar, and is able to communicate anonymously with the individual. Methods and systems for capturing data using avatars and selecting individuals using avatars are also described.
