Computer skills are becoming increasingly important in today's digital world. In today's digital world, everyone has a smartphone and is on social media. There are many different types of jobs that require computer skills to function properly, but even if you don't work in one of these jobs, you can still use your computer skills for personal reasons.
For example, if you want to keep up with your friends on social media, then you'll need some kind of email account. If you want to use the internet for research or entertainment purposes, then you'll need an internet connection. If you want to do just about anything besides talk on the phone (which I guess we're not really doing anymore), then you'll need a computer or other similar device that connects to the internet.
The most common reason people give when asked why they think computer skills are important is because they can help people find jobs or even just make money online by selling things like clothes or books online through websites like eBay or Amazon (or even just by creating an Etsy store). Another reason why people say they think it's important is because computers have become increasingly smaller over time—we now have laptops that fit into our pockets!
