WebTrends tutorials for filters and configuration

Is there any book, website, or other resource that is really useful??

WebTrends is powerful, it cranks out lots of data, but it seems really rare that anyone can really utilize it and set it up such that the data is turned into useful, actionable information.

Is there anything out there that provides detailed examples of how to set up filters, how to set it up to track ads, provides a regularly updated keywords.ini file.

Ideally it would be something in English that is relatively quick and easy to understand and learn?

The webtrends website appears to have a pretty comprehensive howto section. I have not read any of them so I can't tell you how useful they are.
