Where can I find at least two great online tutorials on building a web application using the Spring Framework

Question

I am really disappointed with almost everything I found on the Internet that the Spring Framework is trying to teach. This is by far the best tutorial I have found yet, because it clearly teaches how to create a simple web application using Spring:

I need a little more to get started, but most of the answers to this question are the same - buy Spring in the action book. Sorry, but $ 50 is too much to digest when all I really want to know is how I started building a web application.

Are there any good articles or study blog articles that show you a step-by-step guide on building a website or web application using the Spring Framework? Video tutorials will also be useful - perhaps something similar to those found here:
