These two networks can be the same, i.e. the VPN can be an extension of your

the many ways things can be set up. The same result can be achieved through 
other ways (e.g. Ethernet-level bridging). This does
not contradict my earlier statement: a subnet can be *both* inside *and* 
outside the VPN, depending on the scenario.

The Subnet configuration option indicates the subnets that you want tinc to 
route towards your node. tinc doesn't care whether
these subnets are also part of a physical network or not; it just uses it to 
route packets inside the VPN, once they leave the VPN
tinc's job is done. Technically you can put anything you want in your Subnet 
options; it all depends on what behavior you want to
achieve in the end

I'm a noob, so my goal is simplicity.  What examples, howto's, tutorials do you 
recommend?

Besides simplicity, my goal is a virtual private network between 3 VPS 
datacenters that may not have private networks
as a service they provide, but they do provide IPv4 addresses.
