1) A little over a year (Founded March 2009)
2) Didn't apply. Could use the advice, but not the money.
3) No, and not sure we want to. Got some solicitations last month from a few firms on the East Coast. This prompted me to contact Sequoia to gauge interest. Amazingly, got a sit down with Michael Moritz, and had a few more conversations and email sessions that convinced me (and them) that there wasn't a right fit there. I'm lazily listening to other VCs, but nothing has interested me yet.
