I just came across the word 'Burden Resistor'. Is it any different from a normal resistor?

If it is different, where can I possibly get one? Sparkfun hasn't got one listed. Any help is appreciated. I am trying to build a current sensing circuit current sensing circuit.

fixed capitalization and grammar; added a link
