Welcome Eva, I second Lewis and please know there are all different levels of expert on this mailing list which is great since OODT can do a lot.
One idea that I've heard before (I cannot take credit ) is that OODT is more like a data management framework and less like an application. Starting out typically feels like someone just dumped a bunch of Legos on the floor and you don't really know where to start. That is normal, I still feel like that at times. As Lewis mentioned if you give us a use case or a problem you're working on we'll be more than happy to help.
