This is the new "journey" of the ranking also known as the World Series/League of Publishing Houses @Twitter. Always in the 1st Saturday of each month (this edition was on the 2nd), the top Publishing Houses in Twitter is created from the number of people who "follow" the profile of a Publisher of Books on Twitter.

Notes: Up symbol when the publisher goes one or more positions in the Top 40. In parentheses, the number of followers of the previous edition.

News:
1. The next edition will be in March 2011 (Top is now held quarterly, alternating with the Top Editoras no Twitter, Publishing Houses from Portugal and Brazil)
